    We are so sorry, to hear about Greg’s passing away. We are first cousins down here in Tennessee but always remember summers and other holidays when we were all together. Much love and prayers from the Mills family.

    This week we said goodbye to my brother-law , a man whose humor, warmth, and unforgettable spirit left a mark on everyone who knew him.
    One of my sweet memories is how he’d affectionately called me “Aunt Bethany”, a character in the National Lampoon Christmas Vacation, it was his way with laughter and love.Just like that box of homemade jello gift wrapped!
    I’ll carry that memory with me always❤️
    He was a quite man who will be missed for his gentle spirit and kind HEART.
