Grandma Grace, I miss you so much and will always remember our summer vacations and how you loved to sing and dance whether it was oceanside, at Jimmy Buffet concerts or in church. I will keep those memories in my heart forever. Love you!

On behalf of the Cudzik Family, I am sorry to hear of Grace's passing. Grace was one of my Mom's bowling buddies with many fond memories. My Mom, Ellen, will not be able to make the service as she is recovery from a knee replacement surgery.

All our best for the family.

Love the Cudzik's
