Greg, September 6th, you would have been 39. I can't believe you have been gone from us for almost 13 years. I hope you are hunting, fishing & loving every minute of it wherever you are. I love & miss you so much. The pain has not lessened over time. Big hugs from your mom, big boy. Forever 26.

Today would have been your 37th birthday. We spent some time with you at the cemetery. We love you forever Greg.

Greg, it has been 9 long years since I have seen that beautiful smile, heard you laugh, received a big bubba hug and had the refrigerator raided. Time has gone by, only to remind me every single day that I do not have my loving & fun loving son. So many things have happened. Life still goes on without you in it and no day is the way it should be without you here with us. You have a nephew, Croix,6, two nieces, Cruz , 4 & Cora 2. You would be spoiling them rotten by now, I am sure & Croix would be well on his way to being a master fisherman & hunter. Your dad has no interest in teaching him. He has no interest in much since you left us. I am determined to try to live some of my life FOR you, since you aren't here. You touched so many people's lives and things took strange twists after you left us. Melissa told me many times that you are her soul mate & she will always love you. I think about the life you two would have now. I am sure you would be happily married with a couple of adopted kids. Greg, Mamma loves you. My heart is forever fractured. May you hunt & fish on the outskirts of heaven & you remain forever loved & forever young. I love you, Mom.

Today, Gregory has been gone for 5 years. The pain has weakened somewhat, but comes flaming back everyday because of a song, a person I see, his picture, my grandson doing something that is exactly Greg's action, his face & smile flashing before my eyes or I can still hear his voice. Thank the Lord for his friends, our friends and family. Thank the Lord for carrying me through. He is not forgotten and remains forever young.

Gregory, you are loved always and remain forever young. We miss you so much. We are grateful for the 26 years we had with you but it tears our hearts out thinking every day what might have been. You are always on our minds and in our hearts.
