I can barely remember Grace not being in our family's life. She was my mother's best friend and I always referred to her as my hero. Her eyes always sparkled and her spirit knew no bounds, nothing ever held her down. I always admired her great faith in God and have no doubt she is bringing him as much joy as he always brought her. I will remember you always, Grace, God bless you and keep you always.

Dear Bruce, I have such loving memories of your mom from our young lives on Heather Road. I spent a lot of time at the keyboard at your house and your mom always knew when I was looking at the keys and not listening to the music. my favorite time was Christmas at wanamaker's tea room. She was a great lady. Love MARIANNE
