Dearest Amy and Mary,
I can only imagine a wife and mother’s grief. I was so very sad to hear about Greg. I prayed fervently for Greg during these recent days, my brother in Christ. I will always fondly remember him as helping with the Christmas Post Office at church. Looking at the pictures you posted he loved his family and loved an adventure. Praying for peace for you in the coming days. Love, Denise L.

So sorry for your loss, Greg was a great guy. He was always nice to everyone he meet and seemed to have a smile on his face everytime I saw him.

We never knew Greg really well but he was always a blessing when we were around him. We did hear a lot of bragging on Greg from his precious wife Amy whom we got to know very well and came to love her like a daughter and I named her Short Girl. Amy we love you so much and you are always in our prayers.we know you can lean on the Lord for comfort and you know He will provide your needs.Be strong and let God help you heal.Amy if we can help in any way let us know. Mary this goes for you also.we love you and God bless you always.Short Man and Lucy.
