Dear Jim, Nissy, and Family,
I never had the honor of personally meeting Mrs. Grace, but Jim, Nissy, and now Ariya have shared her with me in many ways. Her love of family is exemplified in Jim; her strength and fortitude touched Nissy often especially during the many weekend family gatherings at Mother Grace’s home; and her caring spirit is easily found in Ariya. At this difficult time, my prayer is that the Grace Family remain touched by the beautiful memories of their matriarch, and now that she has been called from labor to reward, find peace in the blessing of her life.
With Love,
Diane Hightower
I am very sorry for your loss. The Bible can offer much needed comfort at this difficult time. Jesus said at John 5:28 and 29, “Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the Memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to Resurrection of life…”
