Grady Sr. may you rest in peace. You did well in raising a great son in Grady Jr., of whom I worked with for one year. I never met you but I met you through your son. God bless.

To Whittenburg Family:
I am sorry to hear of Grady's death. I worked with with at Universal for many years. Grady was Grady. There will never be another! However God is going to have to figure what to do with him. Knowing Grady, he will try to improve Heaven just a bit to remind him of "his roots." May God give you and your family the strength to get through these times. Just remember this thought, grady probably has God laughing already!

Ginny, Grady, Jr., and family--
Our hearts are broken by the loss of Grady, but yet we rejoice that he is at home in Heaven with his Lord now, and he is waiting for all of us to join him when it is our time. We were priviliged to be a part of Grady's family, and to share so many memories with you, especially through the last four years. They were not easy years, but they were God's gift to all of us to have those years to express our deep love for you. We will always be there for you...

The thing I'll remember most about Uncle Grady is how he was always positive and light-hearted, even faced with his recent medical problems. I remember as a kid, when going with my parents to Aunt Ginny and Uncle Grady's house for their card games, he would be funny make it enjoyable for me, even though I didn't play cards with them. He was always fun to be around, and I he will be missed.

Ginny, I worked for Grady at Universal back in 1973. He was always there for me getting started in my new career. Grady was a fun guy to be around. He had an unforgetable smile.
Your family will remain in my prayer time, knowing that the Lord Jesus will raise you up in comfort in the days ahead.
May God richly bless you.
