The Meaning
To love is to share life together
to build special plans just for two
To work side by side
and then smile with pride
As one by one, dreams all come true.
To love is to help and encourage
with smiles and sincere words of praise
To take time to share
to listen and care
In tender, affectionate ways.
To love is to have someone special
one who you can always depend
To be there through the years
sharing laughter and tears
As a partner, a lover, a friend.
To love is to make special memories
of moments you love to recall
Of all the good things
that sharing life brings
Love is the greatest of all.
I've learned the full meaning
of sharing and caring
and having my dreams all come true;
I've learned the full meaning
of being in love
by being and loving with you.

Greg was a very caring child, he would do the world for anybody. He was a very energetic child always on the go and up to something. He loved to swim at his Nanny & Popo's house when we all lived in California. He was also involved in city sports (baseball & soccer). He was also involved in Cub Scouts. We moved to Oklahoma in 1997, ever since then all he has done is do odd jobs around town when everybody could not hire him due to his age. He attended the First Baptist Church where it seems that he knew everybody and they knew him also (any age). He was involved in sports (baseball & Basketball) and FFA at school. He loved to go hunting and fishing, he also love going to the car races (dirt track) and watching his dad and Popo race when we were in ca and since we moved to Oklahoma he just went to the track and this last year was able to go into the pits and help his cousins & his friend Shannon out.
He was very attached to his youth minister Dennis, they did just about everything together since dad is a truck driver Dennis was like a fill in father. He had several
close friends, Brandon and Greg were friends right since we moved to OK. Mo was his getting in trouble buddy, they had to do it together in the golf carts. Greg was the only child I have ever heard of being charged with assault for throwing a snowball.
Greg was my (Mom) mechanic when the shop did not have time. This last year he had met Ashlee and it seemed like at times they were attached at the hip even though she lived 39 miles away, They loved each other so much that they had even started talking future plans, wedding dresses, jobs where to live etc. This summer started out great Jon & David Graduated High school in May and we were planning to redo Greg's bedroom once they moved out for collage and the army. In June Greg spent a week at Ft Cobb Lake with Ashlee's family (grandma Etta and grandpa Raymond) at a family reunion it was there that he won his Texas motor speedway baseball cap that he wore everyday up to the accident. He had so much fun there. Then we spent a week camping at the same lake for 4th of July, Greg had borrowed for us a generator so we could go since I (Mom) cannot do the heat no more. Ashlee got to go with us, they had so much fun tubing and trying to water ski for Greg & Jon. David got to miss out he had went up to Montana with nanny & Popo after graduation.
The day of the accident Greg was on his way up to the dentist in Tuttle, OK. and then it happened it had rained slightly for the first time in 20 days, and he had went around a curve and hydroplaned and went in front of a semi-truck. Andy (dad) had just got home because Popo was having surgery up in Montana on a clogged artery in his neck. Jon was already at the same dentist waiting for Greg and when he did not show up he came home. Jon was detoured around the accident and did not even recognize his own car, the accident tore the car in-half. but thank God Greg was not tore up he died of internal head injuries.
Greg was such a caring child that when we were asked if we wanted him to be an Organ Donor we had no questions that its what he would have wanted. � we all miss Greg so much it does not seem real.
This is about my best friend's son - Greg Lewis. He was a very special person. He lived until he was only 16, but he helped more people in those 16 years than alot of people do in alot longer life.
I knew him since he was about 9 years old. He was always a very active child. Always had a smile on his face.
I always knew that he was always ready to help anyone in need. My turn came on May 22, 2003, when a fire broke out in our home. I don't know how he found out about the fire but within minutes of it starting he was there. And immediately started asking me where my important papers and pictures were located in the house. Even though the house was filled with black smoke, he kept going back in and bringing out everything from clothing to pictures(which were buried in the bottom of my closet, and it took him about 15 minutes to dig them out!) I know that his lungs hurt so bad from breathing the smoke, but he did'nt care, it was most important to him to help my family save our belongings.
He would come up to visit us sometimes and just talk about anything that wason his mind at the time. I did'nt know how important those visits would turn out to be.You don't know how bad I love just one more of those visits. How I would cherish it.
I have a 3 year old daughter --Breeana -- that he just loved to pieces. He would walk in our house and go straight to her and begin loving on her and playing with her. He loved little kids and babies very much.
This world lost alot on July 30, 2003.
I miss him very much and would do anything for one more of those surprise visits from him that I so foolishly took for granted.
