Gregg & Family,

I was in Hicksville last week and Mom (Judy) told me the sad news. Haven't seen you in forever Gregg, but I just had to tell you how sorry I am. I remember how special David and Marc were to you. Days working in your shop and time together. I also remember how welcoming your entire family was to us when you dated Judy. Thanks for giving me the pleasure of meeting your wonderful brothers. Your entire family is in my thoughts & prayers.

Lisa and boys,

Im so sorry! Our prayers and thoughts and love are with you. Dave was a great guy. I remember watching him play with the kids at youth group and he just seemed like one of them. I know my son rode with him to Pokagon to go sledding and talked all the way home how cool Mr Royer is. He is very special. Know our love and prayers are with you always.
