I know saying "sorry for your loss" does not help nor mend your hurting hearts. Instead, I want to say thank you for bringing such an amazing friend to this world for so many people. I have seen my friends, classmates, and people whom I do not even know mourn over losing Greg. So many people, including me, saw a gentle, kind soul in Greg. I wish I could have been at the service, and will regret that I couldn't make it. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Victor, Teresa and Tiffany,
There aren't enough words to express our sorrow, sympathy and sadness. It's such a shocking, devastating loss to everyone who knew Gregory. I remember the fun we had when me and Teresa were pregnant together and after Bubba and Lauren were born, we would always put the kids together to take pictures and constantly measure them to see who was longer. Just remember all the good times we all were able to share with him. It will be a long road, but things will get easier if the three of you continue to stick together.

We wish we could have been there. Our prayers will be with you always.

Love y'all,
Blanca, Andrew, Lauren and Javi

I am so sorry for your loss. Greg had become a friend of mine last year at Buffalo Trail. We went on many field trips together and had so much fun. He was so good with all of the kids and all of the kids just loved him. My fourth grade daughter just adored him, always gave him hugs whenever she saw him. He and I always shared many smiles throughout the days at BT. I already miss him so much, but am comforted to know that he is with my brother in heaven watching over all of us.

I am so sorry for your loss. Greg will always be with us and watching over us. I will never forget how I use to come to your house and Greg and I would stay up all night talking. He was always so positive and had such a big heart! My thoughts and prayers are with you!

Tiffany, Vic and Teresa,
My Thoughts and Prayers are with your family. It seems like yesterday that Greg was being a younger brother at the Bandit Softball Games we shared for so many years. I know that losing a child/brother is one of life's mysteries that none of us will understand. I will be thinking of you tomorrow.

Greg was such an inspiration to me as I was learning how to deal with the varied personalities of the students at our school. I also admired him for his career ambitions and for his good-natured calmness. Our world has a void now, but we will know Greg again, in a place where we are all fulfilled and at peace.

My deepest sympathy to you for your loss. Greg had such a good heart. While my daughter was recently in intensive care, he took time out of his day to come see her and kept in touch with us to see how she was doing. I will always remember and be grateful to have witnessed his genuine care for others. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
