I didn't find much. I did find a positive comment from Carl Conrad:
Carl Conrad said:now forthcoming, a new primer for Biblical Greek, Reading Koine Greek: An Introduction and Integrated Workbook (the first, to my knowledge, to teach Greek voice as I think it ought to be taught -- I read that manuscript too)
Coming from an experienced scholar and teacher like him, that's high praise indeed.

For anyone wishing to track Decker further, George's site reference has a couple of good ones (I couldn't get his ref to work; my browser probably):
This one speaks about the good professor right before (and after) his death:

This one starts off humorously (Logos 101) but if you page down, you'll see comments by Decker a couple years back:
