H.M., Carol & Myrick, Our hearts are full of sadness over your loss of Grace. H.M, you and Grace loved each other and had been together for 67 years as man and wife. That is a long time. The promise you made to God and each other at your wedding to be together as One until death do us part was fulfilled. We saw how good you looked after Grace these last years and admired you so much. You know we love you all
and will pray for you to see her going as a blessing, She is not gone forever but her love for all of you will remain in your hearts forever. Love has no beginning or end and pauses no where in between so it will remain. Memories will bless you and one day you will all be together again. Remember that as Jesus lives so does Grace. She is with her Father who made her in His Image happy and not sick anymore, Praise God. Betty & Spencer Moore

Mr. H.M., Carol, and Myrick, and family members:
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We loved Mrs. Grace. It was a pleasure to get to talk with her when you all would come over to Benny's to eat fish or when we would see you in the restaurant in Pembroke. We will all miss her so much. Mr. H. M., we love you very much too.
