Greg P. Gilligan

Greg and I dated briefly many years ago when his kids were very little. I was going through some old papers and ran across Greg's name on a birthday calendar I had tucked away. I remember him as a kind and funny man and am saddened to learn of his passing.

Dear Uncle John, Katie and Johnathan: Aunty Hopey's passing has really rocked me and I am so sorry that I am not there right now. I am so sorry. I wish I could be with you all right now, more than anything. Hopey is so important to me - she has been there so much in my childhood and in my adulthood. We will always be close. I hope she knows how much I love her. Greg and Hopey are together again. I love you all so much and I miss you madly. Hugs, Chris, Rachelle and Sienna Haar

Hi there...I was your Grandma Margaret's step daughter......Kathy Kennedy....would love to get in touch with your Mom....very sorry to hear of Hope's passing (she and I were in the same class at Lake Oswego HS....)

Memories.........Greg and Hope you both made a huge impact in my life. It has been years, but I use the life lessons Hope gave me and use them everyday. I will never let go of the love I have for both of you.

John I am saddened by your loss. I will miss them both. I just found out about them both. Hank

To All Who Love Greg and Hope,

Greg was my cousin, though we only knew each other from anecdotes shared by our moms, Hope and Charity, and pictures sent back and forth throughout the years.

I was terribly sad when Greg died, comforted that the family, led by Hope's pure faith, would eventually become used to the absence of his physical presence in this world, knowing he resided in another, close yet untouchable.

Now that Hope has gone to join Greg, I pray...

Dear Aunty Hope, Uncle John, Katie and Johnathan,
I love you all very much and I am so sorry that we have lost Greg and that I cannot be there right now. He was such a wonderful man. Greg and I shared a special bond and I am so glad that we were able to spend some time with him on one of our last trips to Portland. Before I moved to New Zealand Greg, Ahna, Mike and I all got to spend some quality time together. I will treasure those times forever. I can't express the sadness that I...

DearGilligan Family,

We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Greg was a terrific person and a great father. May your memories help you through this sorrowful time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Gilligan Family,

I am so sorry for your loss. What a great unique individual. He had such a special outlook on all the different challenges life throws at you, some of them were inspiring and some were just flat out fun. He really had a way to bring out the best in someone, even if just a smile. I miss him.
