Erma Jane Davis Pace

Erma was my grandmother. I have vivid and beautiful memories of her and her home growing up. I remember her as generous and kind toward my mother and me. Her home always was a welcoming place. I will miss her.

Erma was my grandmother--I am the daughter of Clyde Pace's youngest daughter Kaarin. I didn't see enough of her, though I tried to drive down and have lunch with her or visit with her whenever I came out to Utah. I'll always remember that she kept toys in the closet for us when we were little. I also have fond memories of her owls (in all sizes and shapes) and her pets that I loved to snuggle with. She and I corresponded a bit via e-mail before she got really ill. She was an inspiration to me in her willingness to try new technologies, no matter what her age. I appreciated the time she took to put together scrapbooks, learn to get the acid out of paper, and find photos or knicknacks and give them to someone who would treasure and value them. She sent me cards and poems that always lifted my day. Grandma was impressive in her independence--she bought her little house because that was the one she wanted and she took care of it and thrived in life for many years. Her faith was a strong force, and I know that when she became very ill she missed spending time with her many church friends who gave her strength. I feel very blessed that she had such good friends and family to care for her in her times of need. I'll miss her. I hope she is enjoying being reunited with so many of the people who went before her.

Erma was such a sweet and genuine lady and I am honored to have known her. She was my neighbor from across the street my whole life and was always so sweet to me & my family. We would always exchange waves as we drove past or walked past & I loved talking w/her. What a great lady she is. I'm so sorry for your loss.

On the behalf of myself and my children, Louis R Edwards an Pollyanna Candalot, my husband David Ju, we would like to express our condolences to Auntie Erma's family. I have loved her for over 40 years an have enough memories of her and Uncle Lou, I could write a book. My son is names after Lou as I was pregant with him when Lou passed away. Unfortunelly, the last time I saw Erma, was on her 80th birthday, as Beverly had a party for her and we attented it. I shall miss her smiling face, her warm emails, cards and letters. I shall miss her, the world has lost a great lady with a wonderful heart. I will keep her in mine always.. Helen Ju
