Not sure what to say?

Barb,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Grace was a special lady and was like a Mom to many of us who went to college with Barb. She was always fun to be around because she had opinions about life. She was young at heart and I loved her enthusiasm! She will be missed but the good memories will always be there.

Grace was the epitome of such a lady...full of wisdom, devotion to her family and full of life. You always knew where you stood with Grace! Her love of conversation, including politics was filled with passion. I feel so fortunate that she brought her beautiful and loving daughter, Barbara Lynn, into this world. If I had never met Barbara, then I wouldn't have had the pleasure of knowing Grace, who will be dearly missed by all of us. My prayers and love are extended to the entire family.

I was lucky enough to get to know Grace when she would come get her hair done...I loved hearing all her stories..Thank you for sharing her with us - To her family..I am truely sorry to hear of her passing!!!

MAY THE MEMORIES THAT YOU HAVE OF GRACE, LIVE ON IN
YOUR HEARTS AND MINDS FOREVER. SHE WAS A STRONG WOMAN WHO FACED LIFE WITH GREAT COURAGE NO MATTER WHAT THE CIRCUMSTANCES. LOVE, ANGELA & GREGG COX
