I really don't know where to start... I'm greatly sadden abouts Greg's death. I didn't know about how sick he was as we grow apart in life's journey, But our paths cross at Sony and I can honestly say he was my freind and I'll miss him. Just knowing he's not in this world any more, makes my cry. I didn't get to say good-bye but he knows I cared. He made me see things differently about people and myself. There's so many things I could say about your mother and father... I didn't know about your mother either until I read it in his obituarie, I'm so sorry for yall's lost. I hope you girls the best of luck in life but with them watching over yall it just would not be luck "its love" I will never forget you G.K. your friend Charles

I went to visitation tonight in Dothan, but did not get an opportunity to sign the guest register. I worked with Greg at Sony for several years. They were very good years and we continued to miss that beautiful smile and his mild mannered approach to problem solving. Greg personifies the word gentleman. His upbringing, his growth in marriage, fatherhood and his career shone through his being. This earth's loss of such a wonderful person is definitely Heaven's gain.

I am sad to hear of Gregg's death. He was a very nice person. At times, some colleagues and I would hitch a ride home with him for the weekend from Troy State. During that time, I became to know him better. I haven't seen Gregg in years, but others would occasionally mention good things about him; therefore I would smile knowing that he was doing fine. My prayers go out to the Kimble Family during this time of sorrow. As time goes by, God will strengthen you.

I have known Greg since our days together at Troy and later working at Sony. I have sons the same age as his daughters. I know he loved his family and was a dedicated husband, father, and friend.
My heart is heavy for the loss of this wonderful kind man. He was one of the most decent and truly good people I have known. The world is darker today because we have lost his light. I know his girls will always remember and honor their father. I am glad he was my friend and I will truly miss him.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

My heart is saddened by Greg's death. We worked together at Southeast Alabama Medical Center while he was going to college. Our paths crossed often before he became Director of Human Resources at the Mercedes plant. I smiled when I would drive by the plant remembering Greg and celebrating his achievements as I was heading to Tuscaloosa to see my son. Greg was such a kind & gentle man.

UNFORGETTABLE FRIEND................
How could we forget about you? Never your laugh or the way you smiled, our moments of fun and laughter, that we shared since elementary and into our adult lives...times that we just sat and talked for a while, the way we kept growing in friendship that was strong, caring, sharing and happy....You will be greatly missed.......

I pray that you will find peace now and acceptance that God has now called one of his own to a place where he is closer to him so he may experience the benefits of a promise I feel Greg believed in: ("I will go and prepare a place for you, so that you may have eternal rest") I know that Greg believed in God word and had faith in that promise but remember he will always be with us in spirit for those of us who loved him dearly.
Sincerely a Special Friend Always,
