Aunt Grace was a remarkable woman. She had so many wonderful stories. I remember the train ride that we took from Waterbury to Torrington. She was our "personal" tour guide. Bob and I were so happy and thankful for the times she spent with us in Vermont and for the New Years eve that we spent together in Watertown. She will be missed but always loved.I wish that I could have come to pay my respects, but I had to work. Just know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Mary Ellen
