  1. Candle 8Greg was a great gentleman.I loved him and have great memories. My son who he called Smiley also loved him and misses him dearly. He now has wings in heaven and my he fly gracefully. We will miss him.

  2. I miss my brother. We met in Rincon H.S. in Tucson Arizona. We became close friends quickly and hiked, road motorcycles and many other adventures together. You left high school early and joined the Army. It was after you left the service that I asked you to be my best man and you were. Friends for life we shared 3 years together with my family until you returned to Texas. Our phone calls were such a blessing as we talked of our children and grandchildren and always shared God’s word together. With suffering and pain you continued to encourage others. You never bragged or talked about your Distinqueshed Service Award for Bravery in Viet Nam. You carried the burden of the faces of young men you served as a Medic until God relieved you of this burden. I miss you daily but I know I’ll see you again in heaven because Jesus is our Savior. Till that day brother, Butch
