Please accept our heartfelt condolences for the loss of Mom, our Aunt Grace. I still can see her and Uncle Jack dating back in the lat 50βs while he was stationed in Lake Charles. I will always remember Aunt Grace kindness to me when we visited her,Uncle Bobby and Grand Paw Landry in Welsh,La. Aunt Grace was a most generous lady who loved her family and deeply cared about other. Aunt Grace will be missed by many but will be remembered by many more for kindness to others.
May She Rest In Eternal Peace.

Wow I...don't even know what to say....the reality of this hasn't even hit me yet! I can't believe you're gone but...it helps to know how incredibly amazing your life is now that you're in heaven with Jesus and God. I will always cherish your memory and it's true I adore you maawmaw Grace. I love you. You are so kind hearted, sweet hardworking, a prime example of what a true Christian is...you're amazing....I wish we could see each other more and I'm ao sorry I didn't call really. I need to start calling family more or I'll end up about to try to call nut then get a call myself instead. I love you so very much and miss you. I don't even know if this makes sense but...I guess I'm just saying what my heart wants to say. I'm sorry I wasn't able to be there to say goodbye but I'm glad the last conversation we had was a great one. I told you I was saved and that I'm naming my kid after you. Her name will be Alison Lavina Grace after the legand herself. I love you Grandma Grace. You touched so many peoples lives and hearts...thank you and thank you so much for living me.

My prayers for the family! I know she is so missed and so loved! As my pastor's wife says when a Child of God goes Home, "How wonderful for her!" And truly such a wonderful thing! To be, this moment in the Presence of our Lord and Savior! What a wonderful and glorious thing!! I will think of you often. Until we meet again!
