I didn't know you very long but I loved your sweet smile and kind words whenever JoAnne and I stopped by. It was a pleasure to send you so many cards of cheer when you were in the nursing home. You'll be missed by everyone whose life you touched. Love, Sharol White

I worked with Grace at the Elmira College dining hall about 40 years ago and remember her fondly to this day. She was the most friendly and caring woman I had ever met and worked with. My thoughts and prayers are with her family at this time as I know she will forever be missed.

I remember Aunt Grace as a kind and gentle women who loved most everything and everyone. In my eyes - she had the Spirit of Jesus as she walked, talked and lived each day. I know someday I will see her in Glory and it will be a glorious reunion. I know how hard it is to loose someone close to you that is why I pray for my relatives in this time of Loss to look above and rejoice. My thoughts and prayers are with them. Sincerely,
