Dearest Greg
I will miss you forevermore You are my first love at 15 and you 16...I just think the world of you. And through the years when we went our separate ways and married others. I never forgot you. You had captured a peice of my heart, as a young girl, and you captured my heart once again.
I shall always remember what a honest kind man with much integrity you had. It was wonderful to be a part of your life even for a little bit, later in life.
It was unbelievable really, a story for sure. As I write this note, I feel such sadness, knowing I'll never hear that great big wonderful voice of yours again in this life. I think of you everyday, and I wish with all my heart you were still here on earth. It's so hard to believe that you Greg Walker bigger than life is now gone. I still can't believe it and most likely never will.
I love you...
Laura
