Stephanie, (& Nathan, Ashlee, Shelby, Joshua)
Life is precious, a blessing and is too short on this earth. It seems long ago we shared double dates (and Greg got the best girl) then ya'll were married, Proverbs 18:22 “He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord.” and had four beautiful children... so add life is full. Greg will be missed.
Life does not end with death, for those who love Jesus it only begins; we suffer the pain of separation until we meet again. Greg was a blessing to so many, a good friend and a family man. Obviously the Lord had smiled on his life for he set a model example of a Christian man. Because the Lord gave us such a man as Greg we have enjoyed many things. The Lord's favor rested on your husband and on us for having Greg in our lives.
God bless you, you are loved!

I have never met a greater servant than Greg McElroy. He was a shining example of the Jesus' instruction to us to "love the Lord with all your heart, soul, and mind." Greg loved doing things for people, and should have been a deacon (even though he refused numerous nominations). Stephanie, Nathan, Ashley, Shelby, and Josh - I pray that God uses his life to continue to reveal His love and grace to you, and that God will surround you with the comfort He offers, to bring you through this for His glory. The Fosters love you guys. : )
