Sometimes someone comes into your life and makes such a significant impact that one never forgets that person. Such is the case with Grace Spoor. Though we only lived next door to Grace and her beautiful family for a few short years on Long Island, her warm and giving personality made a life-long impact on my parents and siblings. Our hearts grieve for our childhood friends. With much love.
