    To Grace's family- You will never have to fear- you will see Grace again- she is with our heavenly Father waiting on us to join her- If I ever doubted that God existed- Grace Conner made sure by her daily walk with God that doubters like me sometimes would know He is real- If there ever was a woman of God it is Grace Conner- you will be missed but we will see you again Thanks Grace for your shining light

    Dear Nanny Conner: Through the years i have had the great privilege of having you as my great grandmother. The meaning of the word "great" has more than one meaning in "great grandmother". Not only are you my great grandmother in the family sense but you are also "great" as a person in general. You have always been very very kind not only to me but to everyone who crossed your path. You have fallowed god virtually all your life and not many people can say that. I love you and i know where you are today and i know why your there. In gods eyes you are "great".
