I was so sorry to hear about the passing of Greg. He was a very special guy and I know he was met with a warm welcome as he passed over.

R.I.P. Greg... He sat beside me this past Sunday in Kings Corp as we shared the Hynmal and Sunday School Book. What a Wonderful Sunday School Lesson about servant hood and vines man. Greg served us at Kings Corp every Sunday by receiving the offering. He did a wonderful job playing the Bells on Sunday. I video taped it with my phone. Greg shall be missed by all who knew him. The King Corp celebrated and dedicated the program to him last evening. We shall see you on the other side Greg!
