Condolence From: Francis X. (Buco) McRory
Condolence: Dear Ruth,
I am extremely sorry to belatedly learn of your loss. I met Greg when I was 3 years old. No one believes I remember the day in great detail. But he, age 5, was the first person to welcome us to the neighborhood. As we grew, summers were painfully anticipated all school year long, thinking of the adventures we would hatch. The warm days were seemingly endless as we read comic books under the maples trees, played baseball, picked dandy lions for Ralph's wine, camped out by the huge oak and cool spring in the woods, dammed up the creek for a wading pool, dreamed of and planned traveling to all the national parks, played music of all sorts, passed secret messages / laughed uncontrollably during the priest's sermons, and slowly learned the mysteries of life. Our childhood friendship was special, full of warm memories and the satisfaction life was well and fully lived. I am blessed beyond words to have known him and very, very sad to know Greg is no longer of this earth. Buc McRory

Condolence: Ruth, Issac, and Family,
While you may not know me, I want you to know I have you in my thoughts and prayers and how saddened I am to hear of Greg's passing. A world should mourn this sad time for Greg had the voice of a champion of good will, heart, and kindness. I rode the school bus with Greg in the middle school years and and high school and we were friends since childhood. While we went our separate ways, we talked from time to time, and shared some facebook conversations. Greg was passionate for what he believed in and and i have the utmost respect for him and his outspoken word.

I pray for your peace and remind you that in our short journey called life, we will be gathered together again in God's heaven to share an eternal life with those whom we love who have gone before us. With my sincere sympathy,

Bob

Condolence: I extend my sympathies on the passing of your beloved husband and father. I grew up around the same neighborhood in McMurray as Greg and his brothers -- Greg will always be remembered by his classmates for his pleasant and cheerful disposition; kind to everyone. May your fond and treasured memories of him carry you through this difficult time.

The news of your passing saddens me beyond measure;however, I know you are in a better place with no more pain. I loved your company as did many students. You helped make my high school career something to remember and look back on the memories and laugh. For that and much more I forever remember you as the great man you were. With all my love and prayers to your loved ones. I'll miss you.
