    Cindy, T.J., Alana and kids, Rob know that our hearts hurt for you. The world will be different with Greg gone but he suffers no more. May your memories of a life well lived bring you peace and comfort.

    I will miss Dr. Temple. I loved to hear him whistle as he walked in the dental clinic. He was very calming and reassuring.

    Dr. Temple was an exceptional man and will be missed by all who knew him.
    Greg led a life of service for his community and profession. He helped inspire my cousin, two brothers and myself to go into dentistry!
    He was also a dynamic personality and his love of life was spread among his friends.
    We will miss him greatly.

    Prayers for the Temple family, he was a great Dentist, and a true friend, a blessing to me and my Family, and will be missed by all who knew him. Always brought a smile to my face and was always a pleasure to be around. A skilled shotgun shot, and wing shooter! Rest in peace my friend you are truly missed.

    My condolences to Cindy and family. Dr. Temple as I always referred to him was an amazing person and teacher. He had such an impact on my career. He took a chance on me and taught me how to be a Dental Assistant and provided me with a career in Dentistry. I always loved going to the fireworks stand every year seeing Dr. T and Cindy. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

    Greg was always a part of our summers in Taft, Tx. Always enjoyed his wittiness. He was my favorite first cousin.

    We will miss Doc Temple, but smile as we remember him.
    We are thankful that our paths crossed and will miss hearing his voice and his whistle.

    He was funny, kind and generous and his passing will leave a void for those that loved him and built a life with him.

    We pray that his family and those closest to him take comfort knowing that Doc Temple will live on because great men are never forgotten.

    I knew dr temple since I was about 15. He was my dentist and he always called me smiley. He was the best dentist around and knew how to make the person comfortable when working on their teeth. I also went to school with his son TJ and I give my condolences to the family and they will be in my prayers.

    Greg was always a lot of fun. I can’t believe that he passed so young. I wish the family, especially Cindy, deepest sympathies.
