To My Working Class Hero:
I was happy when you were with me. I am now sad,because you are not here. I wish that days were the same as they were before,but that would never be. You are now gone, not lost or forgotten just home with God. I love you with every beat of my heart and I always will. My heart hurts, because you are not here with us to hold us near. I live in the everyday stress, and wonder why my life is just a mess. I say these words out of love and fear, but now I know that my life I am living is full of despair. I love you now and forever just please watch over me and that way I will know that I am allright.
Love Roxy

To My Sister
There is never a good time for death. We always seem to be busy with life and living. As young people we believe ourselves to be invincible; as we grow older we become absorbed in the comforts we worked hard for so we can enjoy life, and we make plans to retire and enjoy the life we build. In either case preparing for death is something we rarely bring to mind. The truth is from the time we are born we are preparing to die. It would be remiss, and dishonor my sister and her husband if I didn’t express to you how God expects us to prepare for life.
The Bible speaks to us in many different ways about life and death. In the book of Genesis we learn that God created man and then breathed into him the breath of life (Gen. 2:7 the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and the man became a living being”). Through man’s disobedience to God, sin entered into the world and with it came death; not only a spiritual death that placed a great chasm between God and man, his creation, but a physical death that is the result of sin. Again God’s word teaches us that the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23 “for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in [Or through] Christ Jesus our Lord”.
Now God created man for His own pleasure and fellowship. He intended for man to live and dwell with Him and enjoy life as He intended. Life then is a gift, from the living God, through Christ Jesus His Son and redeemer of mankind. What does this mean then but that God never intended man to be separated from Him or to die. Out of God’s great mercy and unwarranted grace He has provided for his creation an open invitation for Eternal Life; a free gift of life, paid for through the blood of His own Son Jesus who gave his life willingly that we might have abundant life (John 10:10 “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly”.) This is a great mystery that I know my brother Greg took great lengths to understand. He studied many different religious beliefs and finally, on Faith, he reached for the free gift of salvation and eternal life that God offers to us all through Jesus.
(Hebrews 9:27-28 “and as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for Him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”).
Greg and I had many conversations regarding his personal relationship with Jesus. He believed very strongly that Christ was the true and living Son of God and the only way into God’s heavenly Kingdom. He would never hesitate to share his own life changing experience with God. Was he perfect? By no means; as no man is perfect in this life, and I know Greg would openly confess his own short comings. The difference is that Greg new he had God’s undeserved forgiveness in Jesus.
Greg has been called home. He is celebrating the abundant life that God desires for all of us. He undoubtedly said “yeah, yeah….this is cool, I’m into this” when he walked in to the presence of the Almighty God and sat down at His feet. He died… living a life he enjoyed… discovering God’s Creation. Now his life is full and complete in God’s Heavenly Creation and those who have a personal relationship with the God of Creation will certainly see him again.
I think; were it possible, Greg would tell us all to celebrate with him the new life he celebrates today. We certainly will mourn, we will cry and at times we may even express anger for our loss. Keep his memories close to your heart. Thank God for all the memories you made and the life you shared together. We are but sojourners here in this life; it is short and at times very difficult. There may be times when you think it impossible to move forward with you life. For those times Jesus gives up hope in His own words:
Mark 10:27 “and Jesus looking upon them saith, with men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.”

The Broken Chain
We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly; in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you; you didn’t go alone, for part of us went with you the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide; and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one,
THE CHAIN WILL LINK AGAIN

I knew Greg best through the eyes of my best friend, Rosemary. Greg and Rosemary are two people that shared something really amazing! They made it through thick and thin and with the amount of love they shared after 36 years of marriage is beyond belief. I have never known a better couple that complimented each other in every way.
Greg was a dedicated man whose value in life was his Family and Friends. He touched so many people without realizing it. One thing I truly admire about him is he always saw both sides of everything and was always extremely fair with his opinions. I will always remember what a knowledgeable person he was. What I will miss is how he knew something about everything. He always explained things to me so I can understand it. He was very easy to talk to. Whether he knew it or not, he helped me through many dilemmas. I respected his opinion because I always knew that he would have a good one.
I was so proud of him, especially over the past year. He just seemed so happy. The Prospectors club was a blessing for him. I saw him light up whenever he talked about it. I am sure he was proud of himself for the work he did with the club. I saw a very positive difference in him when he became an officer of the club.
Greg and Rosemary are a part of my everyday life. I know he isn’t family by blood, but I will always consider him a part of my family. He meant a great deal to me and everyone around him. He was truly loved and will always be missed.
Greg –
I can’t believe it! Everyone is going to really miss you! I will take care of our girl. You know I would do anything for both of you. I will be here for Rosemary until you two meet again – (Which won’t be for a long time!) I know you two loved each other so much.
Thank you for the signs and the little gifts you have given her this week. I know you are watching over her and helping her through this. Remember to give her a hug once in awhile and I will take her out to a concert now and then.
I will miss your knowledge. You always knew something about everything. I will really miss that. I will also miss having the “man’s point of view” about certain things. I really respected your views and opinion. You always saw the whole picture. Thank you for being a part of my life and allowing me to be a part of yours. I love you, Lisa.

It has been three months since the loss of Greg. The loss continues. I hear it the voice and words of his forever loving wife. The memories she shares througout the conversations I have with her. Rosemary relies on Greg's strength and encouragment daily. He would be pround of the way she has continued with caring for her family and showing strength to her friends. He was and is loved by Rosemary. That is of great consequence in this day and age!

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
