My dear sweet brother. I loved the fact that you lived with me during your move to the valley. Thank you for all the Lenten desert journeys we took together before coming to our Easter celebrations. I love you and will miss you.

There are never words to express my feelings for the loss of a Son Father Brother Cousin Friend. Greg you touched a lot of people's lives in your short time here on this earth. We can only Pray that you are now pain free and snuggled in the arms of the Lord. Some day we will all break bread again at the Lord's table with the head Baker Grandma Hietpas. RIP Greg.
