I am so sorry for the loss your loved one. I know your hearts are hurting, but I look forward to seeing Greg again soon, whole and well and strong with those who loved him most. I have so many memories of Greg. sometimes on weekends Billy would bring to "Foot's and Calvin's" to visit. Even though he couldn't come in the house, Daddy would go to the car and talk with him. Those visits made my daddy's day. You all did a wonderful job caring for Greg and I know he will be greatly missed. You are all be in my prayers. Our loss is heaven's gain. Love you. Dianne Desrocher

Dear Judy and family. I am so sorry to hear about Greg. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. I would love to be able to come to his service, but with the restrictions in place, I don't think it is feasible and I am staying quarantined because of keeping my dad safe. May God richly bless you for taking such good care of him. Love to all the family. Sandra Stephens Priddy and Paul Stephens.
