Quote

"Each time I think of Greystone, my heart swells with joy for having been there. . . . The values taught to me there are my guiding principles - sincerity, courage, honesty, kindness, truth, and, most of all, unselfishness. I lullabied each of my children with Greystone songs. A rainstorm leaves me longing for the tin roofs of our cabins. I am so thankful for the memories, the new opportunities, the lessons about my own abilities, the role models, the deep faith, and the lifelong friends Greystone provided.”
