Greg, There's not a moment that goes by that you're not on my mind. I can't understand why God chose to take you from us, we had our whole lives ahead of us and I was so looking forward to growing old with you. We had so many plans and dreams. It is of some comfort to know that one day we will be re-united for eternity. I love and miss you with every fiber of my being. Your Loving Wife, Karen

I offer my highest sympathy and continued prayers for family and loved ones. When Greg first came to C/Co, none of us knew him from Adam. But it didn't take long to develop the brothership that we built. He was an outstanding soldier, a motivational leader, a dedicated NCO, and an even better friend. I feel blessed to have known him, and he will be sincerely missed. Greg, brother.. We'll see you again soon when it's our time to meet. God Bless.. and goodbye. Having just arrived here in Baghdad I have been unable to check my email until now. I am sorry that I could not be there for his services.
Gregory, I am so very proud and honored to be your sister. And because of your faith and encouragement, I am a better person.
You and I had a special bond and you were always my biggest supporter. You made me believe that I could accomplish anything and the world was at my finger tips, I just had to reach out and grab it.
You have allowed me to see the world thru your travels, pictures and stories.
You have always been there to cry with me, laugh with me and yes, even yell at me when I screwed up.
You worried and cared about Derek and Brittany as if they were your own, and I always knew, should something happen to Larry and I you would be right there taking care of them. So now I will be there for you, doing just what I know you would expect of me. So don't be worried about Karen and the kids, Tracy, mom & dad, & Grandmom, because I will make sure that they are okay.
You know what I always say about angels, so even though you are not here on earth with me, I expect to you send angels to give me strenth and help me to carry on in your footsteps.
Until I see you again in Heaven, remember how much I loved you.
Your favorite sister...
Karen, I know that we just met tonight but always know that Greg will live on in all of our hearts. I am so thankful that you were in his life and made him happy. Greg was a very loved classmate from kindergarten to 12th grade. Never forget you are family to me now and my door to you and yours is always open!! Love Bobbi
To my brother in Christ, my fellow soldier, my friend, Sergeant Gregory Sutherland. You will be deeply missed and honored for the rest of our days here without you. What a blessing it has been to know you, an honor to have served our flag with you, and a privledge to have shared many a good time on the water with you. A true patriot, a loving husband and father, and most of all, a compassionate and honorable man. I more loyal soldier and friend will we ever find. There are some people in this world, that upon their passing we find it impossible to adequately recount the true value and worth of what their life has meant to others. So selfless was his nature, so eager to work hard so that the burden might have been lighter on others. Greg was one of those guys. He will forever be the measure of a man, a soldier, and a Sergeant in my mind. God Bless the family and friends of this brave warrior who has passed from our midst. Karen, I and many "Red Dog" alike owe so much to your dearly departed husband. I know that I speak for all of his fellow brothers-in-arms when I sincerely state that we are forever at your service....as he was for all of us.
Greg, You were the light of my life, my heart and my soul. A piece of my will always be missing. Until we are together again, I'll be seeing you in my dreams. Your heartbroken and Loving Wife, Karen Sutherland
There are soldiers who receive the calling early in life because the Lord is like a General who believes in surrounding himself with great warriors.
