I met you on my Birthday and Married you on my birthday. What memories we have had will never be forgotten. You will always be my "Roy" and I will always be your "Cora", these are the things that keep me smiling. We knew what we had and that was each other. I sit here and read your Valentine that you made me because you were so sick that you could not go buy me one this year and cry. This gives me comfort to know I was your soul mate, partner and Life. Because you were mine too. Now I've lost you, but not OUR MEMORIES. That will take an eternity to do because we had so many. I'm missing you so and so do your pup's Pete,Muffin and Cinnamon. Your Loving Wife, Patty

Though I never had the opportunity to know Greg, I know what an important impact he had on Deb (his sister) and so many lives. Always remember that Greg's spirit lives on via those he loved, and those who loved him.
