moments together.... I Love You Son, May you Rest In

My amazing Uncle, who I always looked up to, and you’re a
big inspiration to the person I am today. Love you, forever.
Greg,
You will always be "My Babe",
friend, lover, secret obsession. So
much love and fun we shared. The
years we had will never be
forgotten. I miss the times we
shared as a family with Tammy,
Kashi, and G, as well as our
personal time. I will always love
you and will see you again one day.
Until then enjoy your pranks in
heaven with Kenny and Tabby.

I and my entire family will miss and love Greg for
the rest of our lives. His humor and ability to
make everyone laugh will be a gift that we can
never hear again, but we will never forget. And we
will never forget all the other great memories of
Greg because they are a gift we can still cherish.
My heart is so sad, but I know you are in a better place. You
were always there when I needed you. I’m gonna miss your
great smile and sense of humor. Please save me a seat near
you when I get there. Every time I look at the sky, I will think of
you. RIP until we meet again, my angel soldier..... Love you,
Ma

Greg was an incredible man and it is impossible to put into words how much he means to me and how much I will miss him.
Although our time was cut short, Greg was my soul mate. Never did I think that I would meet the man of my dreams and create a life and relationship out of a harmless conversation on a Thursday night in September. He has left lasting impressions and wonderful memories imprinted on our hearts. From his beautiful laugh and glowing smile to all the funny jokes we shared. The best part of each day was waking up to see him by my side and the best part of each night was going to sleep knowing he was laying next to me. On the difficult days, no matter how hard things got, or how scary it was, all I had to do was see him and sit in his embrace to make me realize that nothing else mattered. Although I was not able to say my goodbyes, I know that we will see each other again. We will embrace, and our souls will unite for our eternal sunlight and happiness together. I love you My King, My love, my everything. I will hold you with me until we meet again. I mooper love you, my space angel.
Greg was loved by many. Especially, his
son who bears his namesake. He will be
missed and mourned greatly. Sometimes our
pain is more than we can take. More than
we can speak or express. I hope that
solace is found by him and those who are
left to keep his memory alive.
I loved from the day you were born, I will love
you till the day I die,you were always a funny
kid,and a funny adult also,I loved your laugh,when
you were happy,you could see it in your eyes,also
when you were sad,and when you told a fib,your
eyes always gave you away lol. You will always be
my boogs,and a part of me will always be "bloke".
I have so many proud and happy memories of you,and
I will share them wit G always,I hope with all my
heart that you are at peace,I love you forever.
I will always Cherish the memories we had and may you rest
easy my friend!!

Tammy, my heart aches. I will
miss Greg. Fortunately, I have
only good memories of Greg. That
night with the front door. The
look on his face was priceless.
I hope in time you find peace.
Please know I'm here for you.
My Dearest Son, I love you more than you will ever know, I
know now that I will never be able to hold you, hug you, or kiss
you again, you were my youngest, and will always be my
baby.... I know you hated it when I called you my baby but in
my eyes you were, and still are.....you were a man to the world
but always my baby boy.... I love you son, may you Rest In
Peace
