Hello everyone, this is the last day that Gregg's guest book will be available. I would like to take this time to thank each and everyone of you for all of your love and support that you showered on myself and my family. This was truly one of the most difficult situations I have ever had to endure in my life and I don't know how I would have began to make it through without you all. I know this will be a very painful experience for us all to deal with, but with God's love and support and each others,we will survive. Please keep Chase in your thoughts and prayers. May God bless each and everyone of you.
Love, Dee Luly

To all that have entered our lives through Gregg, I can't begin to thank each and everyone of you. You have all been such a comfort to us all. When I am at work and have a few momements I will open up his guest book and read all the wonderful things people, family had to say about him. Although he led a short life, I honestly believe that God had bigger and better plans for him up in Heaven. I did go to a psychic and talked, cried and it was one of the best things I could have done to help ease the pain, if even for a little bit. Did find out that Gregg came through those pearly gates with much, much music. He was also greated by his brother, Bobbie, dad and his grandpas. So as difficult as it is for all of us here still on earth, Gregg is healthy, happy and will be for eternity. What more could we ask for him??
I will love and miss him bunches.

Greg and I grew up together, playing football and running the streets of Tonawanda. Greg had the biggest heart of anyone I have ever met. He and his family took me in my last year in high school when I had no where to go. The Luly's fed, clothed and guided me through those awkward years. We had grown physically in apart but have always been connected in spirt. I will always miss him.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Luly Family. I just recently lost my Beloved Mother on February 6th, 2008. While looking for photos for memory card for her, I found many of Greg. Greg always made time to see my Husband Steve and I when we came back to Tonawanda to visit. I would like to share these photos with Greg's Family. What fond memories I have of him! He will be Greatly missed. Please contact me if you would like me to send photos to family.
With Sympathy;

To the Luly family,
I haven't seen any of you in ages and I am sorry it is at such a sad time. I will always think of and remember Greg hanging out with Chuck and lots of football. Again I am so sorry for your loss. People not heard from or seen in years still have lots of good memories of Greg.

I met Greg some time ago. He had an incredible personality and was always telling jokes. He will be sadly missed by all and I will always remember his laugh and smile.

THE LULY FAMILY, I AM SHOCKED AND DEEPLY SADDENED BY GREGS PASSING. I WORKED WITH BOTH GREG AND GEORGE DIRECTLY AT DUPONT. GREG AND I WERE PARTNERS FOR MANY YEARS IN THE MAINTENANCE DEPT. I NEVER ENJOYED WORKING WITH ANYONE MORE THAN GREG. WHEN A JOB HAD TO BE DONE HE WAS RIGHT THERE WITH YOU. GREG ALWAYS HAD RESPECT FOR EVERYONE. WE ALWAYS JOKED AROUND AND EVEN MADE LIGHT OF A BAD SITUATION. I GUESS THE ONLY BAD THING WAS IF YOU READ HIS PAPER YOU HAD BEST PUT IT BACK IN ORDER. HE ALWAYS HAD A ZEST FOR LIFE AND REALLY LOVED HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS. I GUESS THE BEST WAY TO SUM GREG UP WAS HE IS ONE GREAT GUY AND WITH TEARS IN MY EYES I SAY I WILL MISS HIM GREATLY. LOVE YA BRO.

Dear Luly Family,
We are very sorry for your loss. It's hard to know what to say at this sad time because your loss is so great and because Greg will be missed in so many ways. No amount of time can prepare us for a loss and no one can fully understand your sorrow. But even though no words can truly comfort you, perhaps they can in some small way express the concern that's felt for you now. Many hearts are with you, hoping you will have the strength you need to see you through this difficult time. May memories keep Greg always in your heart and mind. You're in our thoughts and prayers.
