To Wes and Sharon. Wes your love and devotion to Grace was evident for all to see and be inspired by. God gave you many years together and also spared you a prolonged and painful "Goodbye". Sharon, you have honored your parents by walking close beside them these last months helping them thru the difficult days and decisions with dignity and love. I'm praying God will give you and your family members the comfort of His love and that wonderful memories of Grace and her place in your lives will fill your hearts. Nancy DeHaan,Kalamazoo

To the DeLeeuw family, I am sorry to hear of the passing of Grace but we must admit there comes a time when we are not in charge. I have many good memories of your family and the Higley family, though it was when the children and myself were younger and in school in Mattawan. Remember God takes care of all of us and we will see Grace again. Love to all, Betsy (Welch) Hill Plainwell, Mi
