God bless your family during this time. It is always hard to lose a loved one, but it is especially hard during the holidays. I have never met anyone quite like Grace. I know that y'all will miss her. I'll always remember her from the Singles Group at FBC. She was a mess! You guys will be in my thoughts and prayers.

My heart breaks for you and your family. Please know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time. I pray that our Heavenly Father will hold you close to His side as you go through the days ahead...

Kay and Sue - I just heard about your Mom and I am so saddened, but glad she is at peace. I have so many memories of her growing up and will always remember her smile and the twinkle in her eyes when she would talk with me. She loved her family dearly and will be greatly missed in the community. I am so sorry I am not there to see you both. You are in my heart and in my prayers. Love you! Angie

My what a sweet lady. I have great memories of Grace from the days at LMH to Sunday School at Gum Branch. (Grace never acted her age!) She was always a bright spirit and had a compassion for people. I have missed her over the years and know the family will as well. Godspeed, Miss Grace!
