To Joe and Mike and their families,
We are very sorry for your loss of your Mother. Grace was a very special woman. Always had room for one more or several when it came to our family. She always insisted that we join your family for Sunday dinner. We have some wonderful memories of your Dad and Mother.

She and your family are in our prayers. God bless you.

To Graces Family,
I was sorry to see that your mom passed away. Living in Hopedale and coming to Franklin often, I would think of her and your dad. I remember everytime they came to Framingham to visit Fred and Phyllis they would always bring a dozen donuts. Funny the things you remember. May I offer condolences from the Bove Family.
