Dear Naransic Family
My heart was so sad with the news of Greg. I always felt part of the family growing up with Vincent as one of my best friends.
Greg and I spent a lot of time together in the late 70's. He was such a kind and unselfish person. He loved to the fullest without thinking of himself. I remember being in San Jose with him and watching how he loved that little girl Amy. Now she is a woman with children of her own. Time go's by and everything changes but the thoughs and memories stay in our hearts and minds forever. I pray that the Lord gives you the strenght and the peace of heart to make it through these times.
I am coming to Seattle in Aug. and bring wonderful photos I have of Greg for the family.
All my love and sympathy,
Kimberly Leonard-Walsh

Greg, thank you for raising a beautiful daughter, Amy Lynne. She is so fun and loving, and she is very well liked, just like you!

Greg,
I can still see you and Georgie sitting at the little table in the kitchen on 4th Street in Beatrice talking like you were two grown gentlemen. And you were only seven!
We'll miss you, but there are so many memories to carry the family through your absence. We know by our Catholic faith that you are in a place where "eye has not seen and ear has not heard" such glories. Thinking about your being in the Divine Presence for all eternity makes me feel so happy for you.
Love you much,
Your sister Vicki and family--Denny, Tim, Tony, Mark, Alexandra, and Nikita

Sincerely, The St. Philomena Folk Group
