Mary Jane Grace 1925-2006


Today is a sad day. Early this morning, my grandmother lost her battle with melanoma. She is in Heaven today and that makes me smile.
She was such a strong woman! She graduated college the day my dad graduated high school. Everyone said I resembled her and my mom always told me that I had her hands. She made the best Thanksgiving dinner! She could talk your ear off.(another thing we had in common) She could play the piano/organ like an angel. She used to love to hear me play my flute in high school. She loved to read, anything!
Mamaw, I sure will miss you! I am sorry that you suffered so much in these past months but am thrilled that you are now pain-free! I know that you are with Momma and Daddy and I know I'll see you again someday!
