Met Gregory Dobbs in 2006 in Bradenton Florida. What a kind, humble, and "an awareness of God" soul. However, many demons within Family were plaguing him and he and I talked about this often. Greg just wanted freedom; freedom to be who he wanted to be without the constraints and/or chains from those demons and evil. I miss this man. Many would probably say he is not with God; but he and I talked numerous times about God, Jesus, the Bible, etc., and he told me that he believed in Jesus as his Lord and Savior; and if that is true, and I believe that it is, Greg passed on into the Arms of our Savior Jesus Christ. I hope to see you very soon Greg. You do not and will not read this message of condolence or even know about it in eternity; but one thing is for sure, I know my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and based on that belief and knowing, I will see you, and others again. - GARRY

Met Greg in April 2006 when he was 33 years old. Came to me for help, had just started my social agency and Greg was one of my clients. Yes, had demons, but I believe all along he loved the Lord, but sometimes in our world darkness drowns out the light until we finally, and usually it's when we know the end is near, come into the light and embrace and accept Jesus with all of our heart. I believe Greg is in heaven. I did get to see him around March of 2020. Same OLD Greg, and didn't hear from him again, left voice and text messages and no answer. Knew something might be wrong. Love you forever Greg and I miss you. Hope to see you again soon but it will be different.

I was so crushed to hear the news that you passed. I saw so much life in you, despite your struggles. I will never forget you and I am excited to meet you again one day. Greg, I know you're up in Heaven, pushing a Dodge Charger with the angels. Love you bro.

I only knew Greg the last 3 weeks of his life but he was a light to our community. He was full of gratitude and just the politest of a gentleman. Every day he would thank me for helping him even though I would just smile or say a passing hello. Really such a sweet soul. I am so happy he accepted Jesus into his heart and can just imagine him laughing and enjoying life with Jesus right now. I look forward to seeing him again one day.
