    To Mom, my brother Ellis, sister Ann and my nieces Brandi and Chloe. There are not enough words I can pass on to you regarding how I feel about you guys. Anytime someone passes out of your life, the hurt and anger is something we hate or have to deal with. Deb and I sincerely express our deepest condolences to each and every one of you. Love Rick and Deb

    I was looking up childhood friends and Greg was truly that, no problems and no more pain.

    GOD BLESS the McSwain and Gay family.
