I met Grace when I was in 2nd grade. I will always remember her love for everything girly! Whether it was playing Cheetah Girls at recess, dressing up, or borrowing your lip gloss: Grace was all over it. Another fond memory I have is her introducing me to Dairy Queen slushes after a field trip, and her loving the song "Pata Pata" by Miriam Makeba. We blaaaasted that song so many times! It was my honor to get to sing alongside Grace multiple times while at Heritage, whether it was in the car or at our school recital (which I included some photos of). Her warmth, genuine kindness, and sunny demeanor always lit up the room. She will be so dearly missed, and always remembered fondly. Sending her family so much love, comfort, and healing during this incredibly difficult time.

We met Grace through Timberline Church as she quickly became our daughter, McKenna Werner´s (now Pyle) best friend. She traveled to Wyoming in the winter and summer with us stayed at a beautiful lodge as we watched the two girls set up a Bible study area in the loft area. In the summer they would go to Horsetooth reservoir...I would watch as they sat by the water studying the Bible, and just talking with laughter . They even attended a homecoming together, beautiful dresses with their beautiful big smiles. Our daughter McKenna just now 11/30 burst through the doors, sobbing in tears as just hearing the news today. She is a teacher of 17 children and it was the most difficult day of her life she said trying to hold back her feelings on how much she loved Grace and the joy and time they spent together during those years before she left for college in Missouri.
We all have the most beautiful, fond memories, and over the last two days, on FB we have memories that I check once in a while, and over this last week I have come into three different sets of memories, full of photographs of Grace and McKenna, their hugs, their big smiles, them praying together, them laughing and Grace putting the window down in the car in the winter just holding her head slightly out so the wind would blow in her face as she smiled. We are brokenhearted, but we know that the Lord is sovereign, and he loves her, and she is in his loving arms. Please Becky and family, accept our sincere condolences-with love and memories of dear, beautiful, sweet Grace..here´s only a snippet of photos.

Grace & I met in 4th grade. We went to Heritage, RCS, and Fossil together. I have so many great memories with her growing up. Lots of singing, dancing, and laughter was shared between birthday parties, sleepovers, and lunches during our schooling years. I will ALWAYS think of her when I hear Fergalicious!! I can´t even count how many times we´d listen to that song and she´d sing her heart out every time. She was such a bright presence of joy & always kept me laughing. Although the last time I saw Grace was a couple of years after we graduated, we maintained contact throughout the years, especially earlier this year. She shared with me in particular how she found her way back Jesus & this gives me great comfort knowing that we´ll be reunited in eternity! It´s surreal to think that her presence on earth is gone. Thank you for being such a light in this world, Gracie. I´ll always be missing you. Keeping Becky & the rest of the Pinner in my prayers. Grace will absolutely never ever be forgotten. Until we meet again, sister

Grace welcomed me with open arms in 7th grade. We became attached at the hip. We did a talent show together, many sleep overs, birthdays, laughs and so many memories. She was absolute sunshine and she will be so missed. Rest easy sweet girl

I enjoyed the sunny summer days of swimming and bathing in the sun with Grace and her mother at our local swimming pool. She was such a beautiful young woman. I will miss our threesome of coming together in the water to play and have fun. Jeanne Patton
