I was so sad to hear the news of Grace. I watched her grandsons Cruze and Brecken. I had the pleasure of meeting grace when she’d come pick up the boys from my house. She was so kind to my whole family. She was always so cheerful and made everyone her smile. I know she will be greatly missed. My thoughts are with her family at this hard time.

Grace Ann was a classmate of my husband Tony, a friend of mine and a kind person. When I think of Grace Ann I remember her devotion to CHS school spirit and life itself. When I last talked with her she shared photos of her family and how she loved them. I pray for peace during this final journey to Ronnie and all the family and friends that were so close to her. God love you all.

I am so very sorry to hear this. She was always so beautiful and always loved her laugh. I know she’s in a better place with no more pain. My mom will be meeting her in heaven very soon. She will tell her then how much she loved and missed her. Please accept our condolences.
