Gregory Cromwell Obituary

I have had the honor to know Greg while he worked in detention and then he became a probation officer. This man was a person who would make an impression on your life and he did here in Arizona. I am finally ready to say good bye to my dear friend. I hope his children know he loved them with all his heart. Greg was passionate in his work as a probation officer and as far as I knew he loved life. I send my condolences to his family and know he was loved in Arizona too.

I was greatly saddened of the passing of Gregory. I worked with Gregory in Detention and at Holbrook Junior High School, he was a friend to all who met him and was gentle soul. May God bless and keep his Family in the palm of his hand.

Gregory and I went to high school together and I remember him as so fun, bright and easy to be around. When I read that he had passed away on Classmates.com, I was shocked and saddened. My heart goes out to his family.

I worked in the same office with Gregory for over a year and had the privilege to get to know him well. The two characteristics that impressed me were his knowlege on a wide range of subjects and his kindness. He made a very positive impact in my life. I will greatly miss this good friend.

I express my deepest sympathy to both sides of his family and friends.

In the few years that I came to know Gregory he showed forth great love for the the Savior. He was a good gentle person with respect for every one he met. He will be deeply missed by those of us that knew him. May our Father in Heaven bless him and his family.

With deepest sympathy.

I had the privilige to have Serenity, John and Crystal in my nursery at church for 3 years. It was fun seeing them grow, especially John's first laugh and hug. I didn't have Crystal long, but she always jumped in and had fun. Serenity was just turning into a fine young lady when they left. I hope all three will find happiness and peace along their journey through life. I wish their eyes can once again sparkle with laughter when they think of their dad coming in the nursery door to get them. I know those kids were Gregory's life and I pray they never forget their dad, those memories will get them through life's ordeals. May peace come to everyone.

My heart goes out to everyone involved in these two families! My faith gives me hope for the future-a good long life for Greg and Gina's children-and the ability to be together in Eternity. One Montra of our Church is "Families are Forever!" I pray for blessings from our Heavenly Father's hand.

I was greatly saddened of the passing of Gregory. He was a wonderful father and the best friend anyone could ask for. He always had a smile on his face and the best solutions to any problems you were having. He could turn the cloudiest day in to the sunniest, making it seem like the sun was just shining on you and you alone.

Gregory was a great partner. While he worked in Detention Gregory was my partner until he left to work for Probation. I have so many fond memories of Gregory and his children. Gregory used to talk with me all night long when we would work the graveyard shift. He would tell me stories about what him and his children had done or were planning on doing. He was a very devoted father. He was always happy and always knew how to cheer you up if you were feeling down. Gregory will always hold a special place in my heart as he was a very special friend to me and my family. He will be greatly missed. I am just so glad that I had the opportunity to get to know Gregory and have him as part of my life.

Gina I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the kids (Serenity, John, and Crystal). Your Daddy loved you so very much. He talked so highly about all of you.

My deepest sympathy to all of the Cromwell family, I know this is a very difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS NAOMBI, YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HAVE MY CONDOLENCES.

Years ago Gregory and I went to James Island Baptist Church together. He was such a gentle, caring person. God has another angel. He will be missed dearly.

To The Family of Gregory Cromwell:

I am so sorry for your great loss. Greg was a wonderful and devoted man. I had the privilege of working with him for the past year. He was a gifted probation officer and counselor. It was obvious that he cared about each and every one of the juveniles he dealt with.

He was very caring, and spoke so highly of his many family members. You did not have to know him very long before discovering how much he loved his family and adored his children. When he left Navajo County is was a great loss to the County. His passing is a great loss to the world because he was a man who truly made the world a better place.

Again, I am very sorry for your loss. Please know how much he loved you and how proud of you he was.

Gregory was an exceptional person. His kindness and the love in his heart was evident from the moment you met him. Even though he was unassuming and soft-spoken, he could express himself so eloquently and with such passion. He touched many of our lives here in Arizona and he will be missed. My prayers are with his children and family.

To the Brisbane and Cromwell Family,

May God continue to comfort and keep you during your time of bereavement. Take one day at a time and find strength in knowing that God is there always and there are many people who love and care about you.

To the Cromwell family, I am terribly saddened to hear of the loss of Gregory. He graduated from James Island a year after I did, and I saw him frequently at the College of Charleston. I remember him as very kind, very affable. He had a keen sense of humor and helped make daily life downright enjoyable.

I am shocked and deeply saddened by the news of Gregory's passing. My heart goes out to his family and children. I hope that you will find comfort in knowing that he is already in heaven. Gregory was such a good person and he was my friend. Although it has been a few years since we last spoke, I have very fond memories of our years at the video store; the time when he helped me paint my first home; the decorating advise or just being in his company. I remember how proud he was when he announced his marriage; introduced me to his first baby; or just talking to him on the phone when he got the job as a detention officer. I feel very honored to have known such a gentle, and fun loving person as Gregory.

Cromwell Family, Words cannot describe the sadness I have felt since hearing about Gregory. I worked with him at the video store while he was in college. He was always a caring person and would help a friend whenever they needed it. I knew Gregory for just a short time but in that time he marked my life with a memory that will last a liftime.To his children, Your father was a great man, a hard worker, he beleived in God, and he was a friend to everyone he met. To his wife, I have never met you but you have my deepest synpathy and my prayers are with you. To his mother I am so sorry for your great loss and you are also in my prayers. What a great loss we have all suffered, the loss of our good friend.

Remembering Greg from my youth is a fresh breathe of air to know that someone so young could be so passionate. To think of him in his adulthood, is even more awesome to know that someone could harbor such love and compassion and let his love shine. Greg was surely one of God's Angel sent here to spread true love and compassion to everyone's life that he touched! He will surely be remembered and missed dearly!! To his family my heart is with you!

Sometimes in life, we are fortunate enough to meet someone who makes a difference in our lives and the lives of others around them. For me, Gregory was one of those people. He was a wonderful man, friend, coworker and father. I will never forget lunches at Wayside and Gregory always ordering taco salad and pink lemonade! He truly was one of a kind and he will be greatly missed by all of us who knew and loved him. My sincerest condolences go out to Gregory's family during this difficult time.

To so many you were a loyal friend, a comfort, a councelor, a leader or a hero. To me you were a shining light, the salt of the earth... To me you were heaven sent to instill faith and hope because this is what you did natuarly and this is what people felt in your presence. People liked themselves better when they were with you. This is how I will always remember you. I pray these wonderful stories, your stories, get passed down for your beautiful children to hear over and over again so they will know the goodness and beauty from which they came. For now as I remember your incredible journey, I am deeply saddened by the loss of my brother in Christ and my friend. What a deep, anguish and loss... This is truly a sad day for us all...

Gregory was honest, loving and caring to all he met. He dearly loved his family, and told many funny stories about them with much love in his heart. I will miss you Gregory, you were like a son and you were a dear friend, you will be missed by all.

May God bless and keep you and your family.

Love, Lurlene James,

To The Cromwell & Brisbane Families:

I am so deeply saddened to hear of Gregory's demise.

Gregory and I were in Mrs. Blakely's Advanced English class together at James Island High School. Gregory was always so kind and selective in his speech.

I will certainly miss him. Gregory, Rest In Peace!!!!!!!!!!

From all of US...The Elliott Family
Yours In Christ,

Gregory always had a way of making you laugh even when we had some stressful days in detention. I will miss his stories which he told so well, and his advice that he could give you on any subject. You will be missed Gregory.

Gregory was a gentle man. He touched so many lives. I will always remember his kindness and wonderful sense of humor. He would always have wonderful stories to share about his children's antics. He always told them with a twinkle in his eye. It was obvious how much he loved them and that they were always his biggest priority. My thoughts and prayers are with you through this difficult time. We were all so saddened by his untimely death.

Gregory spoke from the heart when he saw injustice. He offered friendship freely. He is missed.

Greg made a difference. We will never forget his transperant loving personality. You didn't have to know Greg long to know Greg.

I did not have the opportunity to work with Gregory as much as others may have, as I worked on the adult side while he worked with the juveniles. However, the opportunities which I DID have to work with him were truly a blessing to me! Gregory was a wonderful, kind, compassionate man who exemplified a great professionalism and utmost ethical attitude! My prayers go out to your family.

I will miss Gregory. He was such a nice gentle man. He was always smiling and spoke so lovingly of his children. He will be dearly missed.

People think they don't make a difference in this world. Many feel that they're insignificant, unimportant and don't really matter.

Gregory proved that this is very untrue.

He has influenced many lives and moved countless hearts just by his positive existence, and for that, we thank God, the Cromwells and Gregory for touching our lives with goodness.

Although we'll mourn his absence, let us also recognize and accept his gift to all of us - the gift of Everlasting Love.

Peace, Happiness & Love to All.

Gregory was an awesome person. His presence in our lives will be greatly missed.

Gregory, was a fun and loving man. He was a great father to his children and loved them deeply. He loved telling stories about what was going on with them. He helped many youth in Holbrook. He will be missed!

Gregory was a wonderful man and a dear friend. We will all miss his sweet spirit. Please know that you have my most heartfelt condolences.

Gregory was a positive example to the youth he worked with and his colleagues in Navajo County. He will be deeply missed by all those whose lives he touched here. He was a man of quality and substance.

Gregory has been a part of my life for the past 5 years when the family moved to Holbrook. He was a great neighbor, friend, and co-worker.

I will always remember him as a loving father to Serenity, John, and Crystal Rose.

Please accept my heart-felt sympathies and love.

To The Family,

Greg was such a wonderful person. It was so easy to love him and welcome him into our family. We will miss his warm and gentle spirit. He is gone but will never be forgotten.

May God give you the strength to endure your loss. Our prayers are forever with you.

Love,
Petronia, Bobby and family.

Dear Liz and Family. Earth has no sorrow that heaven can not heal. God gets the glory inspite of what we have to endure. Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning. I'm here for you. Please don't feel it a burden to call. I'm available to serve. You and the family will be in my prayers.

Gregory. One of my most cherished friends. Always there for me for every little thing in my life. Whether by phone, email, or in person, you always had comforting words for me when I needed them. You always had words of encouragement and praise when I needed them. Your soothing voice was always the remedy for a stressful day. Your unique humor and personality was the reason you were loved by so many people. I will never forget you! Your smile, your laugh, your ability to grill the perfect hot dog, and singing along to the radio while riding in "Maggie". You treated my son and me like family...and that is how I will always remember you as...family. That first year in SC will be remembered as one of the finest in my life. I will always love you, my friend. I will always remember you. We will always have "The Duplex".

Gregory was a wonderful, generous, kind soul...truly a quality individual, and a blessing to all who had the privilege of knowing him. Please accept my sincere sympathies.
