Mary Ellen and family – I am so very sorry for the loss of your beautiful Grace. I cannot imagine, and am praying for you, your family and all the people who’s lives she touched. I am thinking of you all.
Thoughts and prayers for the entire family. May you find joy in the wonderful memories of Gracie, her love of life, dance and family. I know she is with her grandma Terri and they are both joyful. Love to you all.
Hannah, my heart aches for your loss. May God’s peace fall on you and your family. Love you, Ed and Annette
Mary Ellen,
Oh My God, what a tragedy. My sympathy cannot be expressed in words at a time like this. I grieve with you from the depth of my heart. To lose a child with so much life ahead of her is unfathomable. She obviously was a very special young woman with such a desire to give to others.
Any words of sympathy seem to ring out so hollow but please know that you and your family are definitely in my prayers to God Almighty to give you a special measure of comfort during this time as you grieve for the loss of Grace Elizabeth. I have a granddaughter, Grace Marie, who is 20 years old and I cannot imagine how our family would feel to lose her now in the prime of her life.
May God be with you and comfort you.
Your Friend,
Byron

She loved you all very deeply and spoke often about all of you! I will be praying for you and your family.
