"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted" Matthew 5-4

The Lord said we must love one another. To love Greg Melendy and the entire Melendy Family is what Jesus meant. Greg showed us all how to love, by his selfless acts. This world is a lesser place without Greg, but we are not of this world and I truly believe we will all meet again.
Be well, my friends.
