Our Cousin Grace was a bright spark when we went to Haddington School in Saskatchewan together. Then when the Mitchell and Jack Goodwin families moved to Bounty, we all went to school together. there, too. Grace was a brilliant student, and could sing and play the piano. We all sang together in the United Church Choir, as well. Dear Cousin Grace is Singing with the Angels now.. Love to her Family,
