Former gay porn star Matthew Rush just posted this video on his Instagram along with this message:
May you Rest in Peace Erik Rhodes and Roman Heart. You are missed. In our darkest hour when life knocks us to the ground, it’s ok to roll over and gaze up at the stars before you get up.
A gift sent to him by his friend Michael Youens brought back memories when he was filming Cross Country in New Zealand with late Erik Rhodes and Roman Heart. Erik passed away back in 2012 and Roman in 2020.

Don’t do drugs guys…
The Porn Emperor says
Dang. So is Greg done with his drug arrest from a few years back? Did he go to rehab? Sounds like it from his speech here.
Bruce says
I didn’t watch the video, but I can only imagine how touching it is. Some in the audience will criticize, disrespect or act as though these guys are just objects who do us a favor by being Porn. These guy are connected by their inactions and relationships. I wish Matthew all the very best.
Anton says
How sad. We never think we will get old. We always think we have more time. I wish Matthew all the luck in the world.
Brody says
Exactly. And time waits for no one, when u are young it ALWAYS appear that u have time but in the blink of an eye it’s gone and u are left to figure out what to do with your life

Jesus. I actually went to dinner with these three guys one time in New York, and a couple of their Falcon handlers, when I was covering a public event they were appearing at. I didn’t put it together until this that two out of the three are dead now and the third very nearly was.
Fred says
nice gesture and oh my, did i have a crush on roman heart
TJ says
Aww Greg :(. I loved him so much when he played Matthew, he was my first big gay port crush. I was so sad seeing what a dark road he went down with drug abuse.
He seems to be doing better now though, and remembering those happier times.
I only hope he carries on his path to good health.

This is incredibly heart-wrenching. Stay strong as well, Greg, and everyone else dealing with tough situations.
Max says
I met Greg in Sydney during the Gay Games in 2002 and he was fun and so charming – a good guy. This heartfelt video shows off the guts, courage and strength of character of the man who survived all kinds of tough roads since then. Stay strong Greg and keep going, one day at a time.
Niko says
Sending this man nothing but blessings and blessings in his life. Such a big part in me exploring my sexuality and coming to terms with being a queer person so I wish you nothing but the best!!
kevin says
I am glad matthew is still around after all he has been thru
Scott says
Very well done video, Greg. I wish you the best and your fellow gay performers. Roman Heart was one of my first gay porn crushes. That scene with him and Brent Everett is so erotic. I need to check that one out again.
Matthew Fleck says
I will miss your laugh, smile, and sweet demeanor. I wish during our three years I found a way to remove the pain this Industry and the people that run it caused you. Your a beautiful man INSIDE and out and should have never been treated like you had been at the end of the falcon era. No performer ever deserves to be treated the way this industry treats them when they give and put so much on the line to perform. RIP my love you will live on forever in my heart.

Damn, imagine having so much privilege and pissing it away. Then playing victim. Erik Rhodes in particular did that to new heights when he was on Tumblr.
Eric Moore says
Beautiful tribute from my fellow Columbus, Ohio native Greg Grove aka Matthew Rush. My gay porn awakening in the early 90’s almost entirely consisted of him, Erik Rhodes, and Roman Heart. My heart breaks for their loss, and I’m wishing only the best for Greg and his future. ❤️
