Nanny was a beautiful woman inside and out seeing her when I was little was my disney world! When everything was wrong in your life you could be in her home and everything would be ok. When you wanted an honest opinion about something, all you had to do was ask Nanny. I never realized how old she had gotten because even at 92 she was still kicking! I love you Nanny!

When we visiting Nanny's home, whether her personal residence or the Masonic Home, upon hearing our knock at the door she would always say, "WooHoo, come on in". I can just imagine her at the entrance to heaven saying "WooHoo, I'm here Lord" and the Lord responding, "Come on in." She had a great love for and friendship with the Lord and I know he is happy to have her home. A bit of Nanny will live in us all. WooHoo Nanny, we love you.

I have the honor of having known Grace I. Long for over 25 years. During that time, she was one of the kindest and most caring people I knew. Her love for her grandson Ray and myself never flagged and she was always our biggest supporter. She will be dearly missed by everyone in our family.

She was a Southern Belle. I loved her spunk and love of all things God created. She will be missed deeply from staff, residents and all who entered the doors of MAHOVA.
