Grace was a wonderful student at Ocean Lakes HS and I know that all of us who had the pleasure of having her in our classes will always remember her fondly and with a smile. She was a sweet girl. I am thankful that I had the opportunity to know her for a short time. Let's all keep her alive in our hearts.

I only knew Grace briefly. She'd make my coffee and laugh at my bad jokes. I loved her t-shirt collection. She was lovely, sweet and made me smile. She will be missed by many of us in Richmond.

Grace embodied her name, she was one of the best people I've ever met. She enjoined her life to the fullest. She was a good friend and will be missed... Knowing her she would want us all to remember her life and the good times. Always and forever.

Grace was one of my best friends, and she is one of the greatest people I've ever met. I will never forget her, or the times me, Grace, and Maribel went on adventures and got pizza bread and went to Mt. Trashmore. You will all be in my thoughts and my prayers. I wish that I could make it to the Celebration of Grace's Life, but I will be there in spirit and I will be thinking of her and everyone that's there.
