Not sure what to say?

In the late 50's and early 60's I was good friends with Don and became acquainted with the rest of the family. Knowing how difficult it is to lose a mother, I want to send my heartfelt condolences to you all. Grace was a wonderful woman and loving mother.

I was so sad to hear the passing of Grace. Years ago I cleaned for her, earned a very special and close relationship with her, and loved her very much. I had the fortune of meeting her entire family. I had so much admiration for her, and will miss her greatly. To Bob, Ann, Don and Susan... I am so so sorry. My greatest condolences.

Grace was the kindest lady I ever had the pleasure of knowing and loving. She was generous and gave of herself to any and all who might need her without reservations. Her cooking was simple yet delicious southern style and her biscuits melted in your mouth. She will be missed yet forever held dear in our hearts.

When I was born prematurely in 1953 my family lived next to Ron & Kathleen Hickey and just down from Grace and her family. While we moved when I was little, I grew up hearing good things about Grace. (My folks remained friends with the Hickey's). Grace was quite a lady and I know you will miss her greatly. Our prayers are with all of you. May the Lord give you the strength for each day.

We were sadden with the news of Grace's passing. We are lifting up the family in prayer.

I wanted to send my condolences. It is tough to lose a parent, no matter the age. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
