Dear Dowell Family,

I am so very sorry to hear about Greg's death. I will always remember him by his cheerful smile, and his kind and gentle spirit. I hope you will take comfort in John 11:25--"I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in Me, even though they die, will live." May the Lord be with you during this time of loss, and give you strength and hope.
