I was very sorry to hear of Marion's passing.  It is nice to know that  her friends and family were blessed with the many years she was part of their lives.  Peace and comfort to those who are feeling her loss at this time.

We are so saddened by the death of your mom.  It was so strange that Daddy called her phone # right after she had died.  Their families have always been so close.  There has never been a finer Chrisitan lady than Marion Graves.  I remember the many visits to your home when I was growing up in Nashville, then later to Birmingham, and to Decatur.  Even as she aged, she was a most gracious spirit, full of hospitality and love for the Lord and His children.  May God richly bless you and your families as you cherish the fond memories of a loved one gone to the eternal home that she longed for.  Love, Marjorie and Hayes Grady and Warren Jackson, Murray, KY

Baxter and Granville, I am so sorry to hear of the death of your mother.  The news came from my cousin, Doris Walker Bruey.  My prayers are with all of you.  Rita Wells Burchett

My deapest sympathy to the family.  Marion was a special person and near and dear to my heart.  She cared for my son, Everett for 3 years (1990-93).  She was like a grandma to Everett.  Robert was dear to us too as he would come over to have lunch with Marion and take Everett fishing in our pond. Marion often talked about her kids and grandkids, and how proud she was of her family.  My prayers are with you all.

I would like to express my sympathy for the family.  I personally knew Ruth from working with her in the Senior Companion Program,  She was a very special person in giving back to the community in several different ways and that she really enjoying this.  I seen Ruth around Christmas time at the Senior Site and talked to her for awhile.  I know that she will be missed by all.  My prayers are with each of the family members.
