Laura and Rick,
Please accept our condolences on the passing of your mother, Grace. We never had the privilege of meeting her, but know that you will miss her greatly. Our thoughts are with you.

Dear Fred,Rick,Laura,Bobby, And Kathy,

All of you have made my memories of the "teenage years" so very special. Spending week ends away from Villanova at your home was always looked forward to. Grace treated me like a son. She even gave me the "look" only a mother could give when Rick and I engaged and got caught in mischief. It is with love and joy that I will remember Grace as I do all of you.

Love,

Willie,Margarita,

Mom, you were the best friend anyone could ask for. Thanks for devoting your life to your family.
We miss you so much but know that we are all going to be OK. Thats what you wanted so much. Love you big, Laura

The Knoop Family,

Grace,
You will be missed and very remembered. My love and prayers are with you and those you left behind.
Happy Trails!

To my old Atherton family,
Grace Knoop was one of the great tours de force, accompanied by her rapier like wit, that I had the great privilege of knowing. Rick and I always thought we were getting away with murder, when in fact, we were just being allowed the luxury of that perception. Thanks for always taking the time to be interested in who I was becoming.

To Fred, Rick, Laura, Bob & Kathy ~
We were all so lucky to have had Grace in our lives. Her warmth, sense of humor and positive attitude influenced us all and she will always hold a special place in our hearts and in our minds.
Love to you all, Tom, Mike & "Dude" Brown of Placerville ~ Carl & Marilyn Crismon of Oakley

To Fred, Rick, Laura, Kathy and Bobbie,

Gracie touched our hearts in a very special way. The trips we took with Gracie are the highlights of our memories of her. Boy did we have fun. We feel very blessed to have known her and been a small part of her life. She became a dear friend.

We will never forget Gracie and her wonderful spirit. She brought not only dependability and loyalty to our Board of Trustees, but also a sense of humor and quality of life that made her REALLY fun to be with. She made sure that whatever we were doing that we were having fun every inch of the way! Gracie, while our hearts are full of sorrow at your passing, we will always remember the GREAT fun we had together.
