Friends and Family,

Today a dear and wonderful friend of Greg's, and our family's, died after a three plus year struggle with cancer. Ginny left behind three beautiful girls...her Lambies, as she called them...and an incredible family who loved her into Heaven.

I know in my heart that Greg held tight to Gin's hand and walked her to and through the "pearly gates" to show her the wonders of it all. It seems fitting that on this five month anniversary of Greg's death, his good friend would join him.

Today, on this final day of Greg's CaringBridge website, the Tolaas family thanks you for your unending love, support, and prayers. It is truly what has lifted us up and carried us through thus far. I so boldly ask for continued prayers, not only for our family, but also for the Kelley's (Ginny's family)...most especially Gin's Lambies ~ Rosie, Lily, and Josie...as they walk a similar path of hurting and healing.

I have a quote next to my computer that reads ~
gratitude: Give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way.

In my parting words, along with giving thanks for you family and friends...blessings indeed...I also give thanks for the unknown blessing of CaringBridge. You have provided Greg and our family with an amazing gift of "heralding" and "healing" with the use of the website. I ask that any and all whom have touched our lives through CaringBridge...and last count that was 240,000 ...contimplate a contribution to CB to keep it going. What an amazing gift to so many.

With all said and done, we Tolaas' say a final and heart-felt good-bye, wishing for each and every one of you peace, abundant blessings, and all good things.

Beth, Maureen, Tim, and Laura
