My sincere prayers for peace on Grace's soul. Her lovely smile could certainly light up a room! Even when she was suffering, she'd manage a big smile and a genuinely warm greeting. Prayers for and readiness to help Rex and Liam. Condolences for the entire Sears family. Bridgett Chandler

Dear Sears extended family: I am so sorry to hear that Grace lost this big fight. I saw her last at a Westside School reunion for Rex's class 18 months ago. Please let me know if there is a memorial effort for Grace, And or Rex and Liam. Lots of parents are sorry to have missed the service - many of us attended Martin's. Our hearts are with you and Rex and Liam especially. Love to all. Hallidie Don and Caleigh Haid
