Heartbroken.????????????
This is one of my favorite photos of us. It brings back such fond memories. It was @itsmikehill birthday & we invited a few of our friends over for a last minute gathering at Lake Bailey. Out of nowhere, Gregg asked to pray for Mike and I. For our love & our relationship. He was first person to actually pray for us as a couple. It was so heartfelt and so beautiful. We were all so touched and blown away by his words. I think Mike & I both teared up. There was sincerely a ministry inside of him. He truly blessed us that night & we will never forget it. That was one of the many things that Gregg did to bless my life. I am so saddened to hear of his passing. My heart and prayers go out to @neneleakes and her family. Gregg was a good man, so kind & so loving. I will miss him, and will always honor his memory with love.????????❤️????????

My heart is truly broken ????for @neneleakes my sincere condolences to you, Brent and your entire family. Thank you Gregg for letting me be the 3rd wheel many nights. I’ll always remember our jokes about “smell me Marlo” (insider) you were the man with the scents! This one is hard. #fcancer Rest In Peace Gregg. Such a good man, always so sweet and kind to me. You held your family down like no other.

I’m so thankful I had the pleasure of knowing @greggleakes. He was wonderfully wise, hilariously humorous, courageous and compassionate. A great husband, dad and friend. Death always has some measure of sadness but a man who leaves a legacy never truly dies because his spirit, his words, and his deeds are etched in the hearts of everyone who was fortunate enough to know him. Tonight I find solace in the moments I listened, laughed and learned from Gregg. #RIP#OG#Greggleakes

@neneleakes what’s known doesn’t have to be posted-YOU know I love you and am always praying for you #Athensstrong ????????????

  1. Resting and at peace with God. Looking down on his family and still loving you all. Great man of God. Stay strong family until you meet him in Heaven. Love you all.

  2. Dear Nene,
    Nothing in this world impacts you life like losing a love one. Only one thing can fill that emptiness that hollow feeling that makes it hard to breathe at times. That one thing is to trust our loving GOD. There are words of comfort from family and friends which are good but the comfort of the living GOD will be with you every day all day.
    Greg is resting in the arms of the LORD.
    He’s ok.
    Be strong beautiful sister and trust GOD.
