Reflections for Lieutenant Gregory Floyd Medlin

Hi Sweetie,
Your little girls are growing up real fast. Danielle was 18 last Saturday and Andi will be 22 tomprrow. Can't believe how fast the time flies.

It seems just yesterday that you were here with us, making us all laugh. You'll never know how much I love and miss you . Tell Dad I love and miss him too.

Hi Sweetie,

I knw you think I have forgotten to write to you but I haven't. I left a post on December 21, Decmber 24 and another one on December 25. None of them appeared.

I just want to tell you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and to tell you how very much I love and miss you and Dad. Christmas was not the same. When I was shopping I saw so many things that I knew you would like. Wish you were here to spoil.

I love and miss you so very much. Maybe this year will be easier.
LOVE

It is hard to believe that ten years have gone by so fast.It seems like yesterday.You are in my thoughts often.When thinking back to my years of law enforcement, you are always part of that memory.You kept me out of trouble,and were always a good friend to me.You always made me laugh since we were in the 4th grade. I wish I could have been half the officer you were.

I can't believe it's been 10 years...we love & miss you so very much...
One day our whole family will be gathered together again, with you and everyone else we've lost.
THAT'S a Medlin Christmas gathering I look forward to, and thank God for the peace of knowing this is temporary.
But, we still miss you, and it still hurts to not have you here; everyone that loved you feels your absence everyday. Thank goodness for the promise of Christ!

Hey Honey,
Everyday is hard without you here, but this date is just a real brutal reminder to me that life will never be the same.

I have had some real exciting news along the way with high school and college graduation for both of my kids ("Karen" keeps adding to hers!) Trey landed me a beautiful daughter- in-law and five years later, I found out I'm going to be a Mimi and a great aunt! I just wish you were here to tease me about buying this or that and giving me a hard time about being old!

I truly believe you can see the good things from heaven and hope you keep looking over all of us. I still say my special prayer, but I added this little quote from a card I received anonymously.

When someone dies, you don't get over it by forgetting; you get over it by remembering, and you are aware that no person is ever truly lost or gone once they have been in our life and loved us, as we have loved them.

Hi Sweetie,
I can hardly bear to think of what happened to us ten years ago today. It was the very worst thing to happen to our family. Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday that you were playing your tricks on all of us and then again it feels like you have been gone forever.

I love and miss you just as much right now as I did on November 2, 2003. Tell Dad we love and miss him too. I know we'll see each other again someday and I just want you two to know how much you are loved and missed until we can tell you in person.


The girls are doing well. Andi is in her third year at Ole Ms and Danielle is a senior. They both miss and love you too.
Will Bo is still at MS State. Don't know what I would do without my two girls and three grandchildren.

lease keep a watch over us until we meet again. LOVE and MISS you so much.

Hey Baby, Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. While some days are easier than others, it always comes back to how much you are still loved and missed! 10 years ago, I'm talking to you, then a few hours later "the horrible news." It still seems just like a really bad dream! I wish so very much that I could see you slap your knee and laugh with you! I love you Greggypoo!!!

To the Medlin family... you may not remember me, but Greg and I were best buddies for a while growing up. Must have been around the 7th or 8th grade. Spent a lot of time getting into mischief, but we always had a lot of fun. I moved away and lost touch after that, and I only just recently started looking up some of my old friends from Olive Branch when I ran across this site.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know you must be proud that Greg turned out to be an officer! It's beautiful the way you're keeping his memory alive with this site. His memory lives on with me, too.

My thoughts and prayers,

Happy Birthday Sweetheart:
Forty one years ago today was one of the very best days of my life. We will be celebrating your birthday this evening with your favorite food. Hopefully everyone will be here, don't know abour Will, he is still in Starkville. I wish so very much you could be here with us. I know you are in heart but I want you in person making jokes and picking on everyone.

I LOVE and MISS you and Dad so very much. Life is not the same without you both.

Please keep watch over us and protect us from harm. Love you very much.

Uncle Greg,
Just heard a song that reminded me of you. You and Pepaw are always on my mind. I miss y'all so much. Every time I go fishing I think about y'all. I haven't left anything on here in forever. I have a dog now. Her name is mally. I've had her a little over a year. I wish you and Pepaw were here to meet her. She's very playful. I'm still at MSU trying to finish up. Everyone misses you so much. I'd give anything to have one more day with the two of y'all. Tell Pepaw I said hello. I love y'all so much. Continue to watch over us. I miss y'all so much!

Hey Sweety,

Just wanted to tell you how much I love and miss you and Dad.

Today is Andi's birthday, she is 21 years old. Can you believe that?

Daniell's Birthday was last Friday and she was 17 years old. Both girls are doing great. Andi is at Ole Ms and Danielle is a Junior at OB High. She makes straight A's. I'm so proud of both of them I know you are watching over them and the rest of us.

LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!

Hi Honey, I am just taking a break from a busy work day and you have been popping in my head all day long! I just got out of a conference and called a co-worker by your name! He must have said something that sounded like you? He doesn't look, act, nothing like you.! Then he asked who Greg was? Thank goodness Beth took over for me because I still tear up talking about you and how blessed I am to have had you in my life, even for a little while. People do not understand why I don't date...If a guy ask me out, being persistant about why I won't go? Then Bam! I just give them enough info about you and us and my loss, then they give up!!. I hope you have been peeking down on earth for a few good things that are going on here. I have almost totally updated the whole downstairs. The next room is our room, that hasn't been slept in but two times since you went to heaven. My therapist thinks it would be good for me.Lol..I think she knows when I do sleep up there, I will have more issues and she keeps making money. Oh well, I will get myself together one day. I also took a self defense cless, intro to firearms class, that led to a carry permit class too. Now I am a proud permit carrier and joined the NRA the next day. I just wish you were here to help me pick out a new handgun. Everytime I find one that fits me, it's on backorder. I need you! Just isn't fair...I Love You With All My Heart!

Happy New Year Baby!! I miss you every single day and would love to hear you laugh again over how many different ways we traveled in one trip. A plane, a cab, the subway, the ferry, the train, a helicopter, and my favorite was the horse and buggy. I keep thinking back to what part of that trip 12 years ago was the most fun! I can't because it all was a blast! The funniest part for me, was you getting stuck in the lavatory on the plane. I'm sure you would still say it was me getting stuck on the Cathedral wall. My goodness that was along time ago, yet it seems like yesterday in soo many ways. I will never stop loving you!!

Thinking about you and wanted to let you know how much I LOVE and miss you and Dad. This is a very sad time of the year without you. I thought about all of the things I could get you for Christmas. Wish you were here so I could buy you everything you want.

I love you so very much!
