To Grace’s family: Grace was such a lovely, sweet lady. Each time I came to Montana to visit my parents at Holy Rosary Extended Care, I got to know some of the other residents. I loved visiting with Grace and spending time with her. My thoughts are with you at this time of loss.

Joe, Ginger and Family, We really wish we could be there for you at this time. We loved our visit with Grace and you and then your visit to Ohio. Please accept our sincerest thoughts and prayers. I will miss Grace’s handpainted Christmas Card this year. Love and prayers. Dan & Joyce
