Memories and Condolences
for Grace Lema
October 25, 2010
When I was growing up I always look up
to you. You were so tall and strong and
active in every thing you did.
Our relationship was always so special
even tho we've always been there for
each other and wished each other well.
We cared about each other deeply through the years.
I never forgot the day you and Ed
got married. I was your maid of honor
and Leroy was Ed's best man..We all went to Merced Court House.
When it was time to put the ring on
I drop it and roll on the floor. We
were all on our hands and knees like we
were playing marbles..Finally found the
ring and we were all happy . wish we could of been together more but know how happy and grateful I am that we're
sisters..I will really miss you Sis
Since I didn't get to see you very much
I always kept a special place in my heart for you. When I was real sick yoy were the one that made me stay strong and gave me strength to get me through my cancer. You were always there for me. Your love and get well cards ad terlephone calls to cheer me.
I would never made it without you.
I have lot of memories of us doing thing together when growing up and
having so much fun..they will always be with me forever.
Love you
Sis Della Dunkak Lake Havasu City, Arizona

Aunt Grace will be missed so much. Remembering all the food that i did not like she made me eat. The worse was the blood sausage. Going to aunt grace and uncle Eds house staying with grandma for the summer was the best time ever. Never wanted to leave to go home because we had such a great time with animals, tractors and playing in the dirt making mud pies. Running and hiding in the orchard from the airplanes and swimming in the canal. Those were the good days. Best of all was hearing Aunt Grace yell and ring the dinner bell for uncle ed to come I always told her he would not hear it she said yes he would and sure enough he came. She was a wonderful cook we could not stop eating her bread. I was lucky enough to have her chew me out for the last time before she left us. She chewed me out for not coming to see her because I worked down the street from her. I was expecting her to not sound good and hearing her be aunt grace was the best thing in the world to me. I will miss you so much and love you always. Will always be in my heart. Michele Dixon Chowchilla

Leroy remembered many New Year Eve's, Margaret and I would go out with Grace and Ed. We would have a great time. We would get lost in the fog and didn't make it to the party until after midnight. Tommy and Linda would go out to Grace's with Mamo
and have Grace's home made ice cream. We would help feed the baby lamb and goat. Grace was bending over and the goat butted her in the butt. We laugh so hard. There were so many animals , all of us kids always had a good time. We learned to drive the tractor and the pick up truck. Grace & Ed were always so good to us. Their memories will always have a special place in our hearts.
Love Leroy Carson, Tommy Carson and Linda Carson Kelly.

My Sister Grace will be missed by many who knew her. Grace had a big heart and was always giving. Grace was called as Big Sister, always so strong. Grace taught me how to cook when I was 12 yrs old. Happy times and laughter I will always remember. Wonderful life growing up and going over to the ranch to play with all the animals etc. There was always people at her home, Grace would come to the door and say "Come on In". Always food at the table. My heart hurts at this time but she is at peace and no more suffering. First there were 7 of us, now there are 2. We will follow her when our time comes.
Rest in peace my Dear Sister, I love you. Sister Janet
