    Please accept my condolences during these difficult times.Greg will be terribly missed by many.I have known Greg and Monica and their 2 children for over 15 yrs. I didn't have the honor to know his Rachel or Trinity. However, knowing Greg he had a deep love and compassion for many people that passed through his life, for the most part he loved his family and the Lord above all.Greg was a great man. My prayers will be with his family as you endure the days ahead. Put your faith and trust in the Lord and he will not fail you.Sincerely,Jill Harris
