To Grace’s Friends and Family:
Grace was my dear friend and I will miss her dearly. We have shared many things, like boat rides, vacations to the beach, dances, good food, laughter and tears. Grace was full of life and I’m very thankful she was part of mine. She very seldom complained and she was very independent. She loved her family and she shared stories with me the last few days of her life. She believed in prayers and I know she is free of pain now. May God bring comfort and peace to those who love and miss her, bring smiles and laughter with our memories, instead tears and sobs. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
Love Rhonda

Dear Bill, Jamie, Brandy, Christina and families,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Please know my heart is breaking right along side yours. Your mom and grandma meant so much to me. She was and always will be my special "Aunt Sissy", more like my sister than an aunt. She was a member of an older generation that is disappearing fast. She had a lot of beliefs and ideas that would be considered old fashioned. She had a love for thing s like old time church hymns and country songs, rock n roll music, dancing, garden flowers like pansy's, petunias, gardenias and growing her own vegetables like peppers and tomatoes. She loved her family, her country and God. She was a very independent lady and some times feisty woman who took pride in caring for herself. God let her do this till the end. I shall miss terribly our sometimes hours long phone conversations about family, days gone by and all the crazy things going on in the world today. She had many ups and downs in her long life. But one thing she knew for sure and that is what she told me in our last conversation, " God has always been with me and he always will be, he is with me now and will see me through this." Rest in peace my beloved aunt you are with God now. May God comfort, bless and keep all your family in his care. Your loving niece, Mary Meyers
