Greg, my beloved Husband, and friend. Greg and I had prayed for each other our whole life's..when God told us to move many thought it was to soon. There isn't one thing I will forget about you, your life brought so much light, your smile so much warmth. No more pain, although my heat is broken and I can't see threw my pain. Our time was just so short, as if it isn't fair. Our candles were lit to join two into one. I will see you in heaven, my true love.I want you to know one thing, I am not walking God is carrying me. My faith and love are rested with our father, as I embark on my journey alone, and as you have just made it home. Rest in Peace my beloved.I love you, today tomorrow and forever.

Greg I am blessed to have known you. I'm blessed to have worked with you and I'm blessed to have all the memories that I have of you. I will miss your larger than life self and your larger than life laugh. You always brought a smile to people's faces with just being yourself. Sometimes they knew how to take you and sometimes they didnt but one thing was for sure it always made us laugh. It is not going to be the same without you. Everyday at Kroger there is always going to feel like something is missing. One thing is for sure you left your mark on this earth. People will never forget you or your funny sayings. Right? Shuuud up! I for one will never forget you my friend. Rest in peace and I will see you some day on the other side. My deepest sympathy to the Dorey family .

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
