My heart is truly saddened by the loss of Greg. Greg had such great determination in my computer class at North Augusta High School. I used him often as an example of how you can do anything you want if you put your mind to it. I know Wayne also enjoyed working with Greg in golf. Our prayers are with you in this time of need.

As the Benjamin's neighbor, I will never forget all the times Greg would stop and talk to me in the neighborhood, asking me how I was and all that good stuff. He always wanted me to go fishing with him at the river, and I'm really going to miss his company. He was truely a character, and most of all a very nice person. May God bless you and I'm praying for your comfort ... stay strong in the Lord.

No one knows what you are going through, with God's help you will get through these tough times. Greg was always smiling, I knew him well. He was one of my daughters first boyfriends and we were very happy he was in her life. She is devestated by your loss. Although is not here, he will still be with you and everyone who came in contact with him. I have great pictures of his smile. Regards, Theresa, Jessica, and Keith Hamilton

You are in my thought and prayers. The loss of your child is the worse thing that can happen to a parent but with God's help we gain the strength to endure the pain. The poem "Footprints" has proven to be so true as God does carry you through this when you think you cannot go on. God Bless.
