The loss of this soldier was felt in Memphis, Tennessee. God is speaking to us to watch and pray. Gregory and his family will be in our thoughts and prayers. It matters not how we leave here; we all must go some way - but it does matter how we live here on earth. Gregory was a good example.
Pastor Dollar, keep on preaching a sound doctrine....the days are evil.

To the Family of Mr. Gregroy McDowell. I know that your hearts are heavy but I ask that you look to the hills from where you receive your help. Know that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is with you and will be with you. Even though I did not know your love one , I can see that he was a man of God. Keep your hands in God's hand. God bless and keep you all in his loving arms.

We miss you here but God loves you best brother. May his wife, son's, family and friends feel comfort knowing that he was working in his purpose and even though I am deeply saddened, when he left us, he was in the house of God doing God's work. Sleep well my brother. I am deeply hurting right along with you family. Say hi to Daddy God,Jesus, The Holy Spirit, and angels for me when you wake up. Have a good sleep, you have worked long enough.

When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure. You don't get over it, you just get through it. You don't get by it, because you can't get around it. It doesn't 'get better'; it just gets different. Everyday... Grief puts on a new face. I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves a permanent impression in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been changed by having shared their love.

October 26, 2012
Caron, we couldn't believe it when we heard about Greg. The Lord allowed this to happen for a reason that we'll understand better by and by for we certainly don't understand it now. But we must still trust that God knows what's best for us even now. "Though He slay me yet will I trust Him." In spite of your bereavement keep trusting God for He knows what's best for us. He has sent His Holy Spirit to comfort us in these times and so it is for He is a God that cannot and does not lie. You and your family are in our prayers and you have our deepest sympathy. If we can do anything please let us know. We love you.
