To all of Grayson's family: Our hearts are breaking for you all! thoughts and prayers are with all of you!
This guy here was ONE OF A KIND! He was a true friend and like a brother to Josh; and like a son to our family! Even when life, in general, kept the visits/phone calls too short and far between, we would never miss a beat when "catching up" with Grayson. It was always like we had seen him every day! Rest in Peace Sweet Boy! We will see you again!

Dear Greg, Melinda and family,
You are in our thoughts and prayers. We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Grayson. He was such a kind hearted and caring young man and a joy to be around. He will be greatly missed. It gives our family comfort knowing that we will see our loved ones again in heaven and they will be without suffering and pain. Here is a bible verse that has helped us, John 11:25-11:26,
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die.
With love and prayers,
Cathy, Doug, J. Douglas and Zachary Small
