Dear Ellen:

Praying for Greg, you and extended family and friends.

Greg was a truly kind, gentle and humble soul. I thank him for referring me to the Knights of Columbus.

I was bummed when I heard the news.
We both know he is in a better place
now.

Blessed Fr. McG. and Our Lady,
pray for Greg and all of us.

Sincerely,

Sir Brother Knight,

Kevin Murawski

p.s.: Keep in touch.
