  4. Jacksonville FloridaMy deepest sympathy to all of you – Harvey, Ardis, Kenny and Jerry. Your Mom was so very special to me and I am so glad that I was able to visit her in Eventide before her passing. Grace was a person that I very much admired for her ability to continue on in life with strenght and understanding while enjoying her surroundings where ever she was. What a wealth of information she held and shared at length when given the opportunity. I never got tired of listening to her detailed discriptions of events in her life. She will be missed so much. God bless all of you.

    For some reason I had expected my dear Aunt Grace to go on forever. It was not to be. She was a wonderful lady in all ways. She will be missed by all her family. My thoughts are with all her family at this time.
