Still hard to believe he is in two horrible car accidents in his lifetime man oh man just think what a miracle it would have been if he lived thru this and could witness to others about it.

He was always a great friend to me and had such a gentle soul (one of the kindest people from my school years) I will never forget him. Heaven definately has a new VERY, VERY special angel. Enjoy Heaven Greg.

The look in this picture is one of the things i remember the most about Greg, that cute smile that "silently said you have no idea what I'm thinking or what I'm about to do". He came out of his adversity at first struggling but with time and the help and guidance of many,
he began to allow the Lord to do a work in his life and it changed his countenance to the peaceful,& content one we see in this picture. He lived his life to the fullest and was an inspiration to many that watched him play basketball, drive a car, work, and seemed to not be afraid to try new things. Sometimes he was successful and at other time he was not but it never deterred him from trying again. In all of this we go back to that cute smile and remember this remarkable young man.
God Bless Pauline and Melvin for being the examples that showed Greg how to live and HOW TO OVERCOME. All his siblings that were understanding and helped with his care, and probably had to give up things at various times.
But Lord has a different kind of reward in mind for you'll. May these days be days of remembering the good and fun things and the joy and happiness Greg brought to you and yor family.
