Not sure what to say?

Churck, Janis, Charles and Russell,

Our thoughts are with you at this very difficult time. I remember meeting Mrs. Grant at Russell's graduation party...what a very distinguished looking lady. She was so much different than I had anticipated from the many stories. I know that you will miss her terribly, but you of all people know that in time you will all be together again. Isn't it wonderful to have so many memories to comfort you and encourage you through the days ahead. You...

Dear Chuck, Janis, Charles, and Russel,
I feel like I knew Mrs. Grant through the stories that Janis would tell. I know that you all loved her very much and will miss her terribly. BUT I also know that she will never leave you because a part of her is in each of you. What a lovely Christain lady she was!
Please know that my thoughts and prayers have been with you. I hope you have a wonderful celebration of her life today.
Love, Jana

I am so thankful to be one of the fortunate people to be touched by Anne's grace, strength, and integrity.

Chuck, Mark, Dan, Sarah Anne, Mary Jane:

So sorry to read of your mother's passing this week. We've lost two strong Christians this month (with Glen "Big Daddy" O'Neal's death last week). Please know that you have our prayers during this sad time.

It was always a pleasure to see Anne when our family gatherings overlapped. She was always gracious, friendly, and pleasant.

Aunt Anne, where to start...

The rock of all ages,
The Aunt of the century,
The Elegant lady as her name indicates.

My memories of Aunt Anne go back long and lovely;
The "Blue Bus" rides to the zoo, the "Magical Fountain" where the water turned colors (we were too young to understand there were lights!), and the "Ironman" visits, yes, we walked ALL the way up.

I just want all of the Grants to know that there was much rejoicing...
