(Couldn't get the state to change. I live in Louisiana). There are certain things that we identify people by as we travel through life. I can still hear the sound of your mother's voice in my mind. I think if she would have called me and not said who she was, I would have known anyway. I loved the sound of her voice. But even more, I loved her smile. She was a wonderful smile. She was a beautiful both inside and out. She was a rare person and you were so lucky to have her as your mother. I wish I could be there with you to celebrate her life. (In case you are trying to recall me, I was Bryan Sooter's daughter.)

Grace was a great neighbor to us on Hazen St.
in Houston. We have enjoyed her friendship
for 33 years. We loved to hear her talk about
her children, grandchildren, and other family members.
Grace was such a loving and caring person to
all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

We loved her, and will miss her very much!
Dan and Vicki Posey
