I shall always remember what a wonderful cousin Grace was to my mom, they were like sisters. I'm sure their reunion was a happy one.
Her niece Doris I can't say enough about, you took such wonderful care of your aunt and she loved you like a daughter. God Bless you and your family at this sad time.
Love, Mary Hogan
