This is for all of Grace's family.     I sincerely miss that girl SOOO much!!     She was special in so many ways.      No doubt where she is.    She was a wonderful servant of God's.    May she Rest in Peace!!!

Grace was always the smile we looked for at the car shows.  She was a friend with everyone and will be missed.  The Vintage Street Rodder family will miss her.

We just learned of Grace’s passing yesterday. I was totally shocked and so saddened. We belong to a car club (VSRA) with her and Roger. Grace always loved help planning our road trips and all the events in route to our events. She was such a delight to be around and loved life. Roger we are praying for you and your family. 

I was shocked and so sorry to learn today of Grace's passing away!  I was wishing her a Happy Birthday and was told she is in heaven.
I babysat with Grace and siblings when the twins were just babies barely walking.  Please accept my sincere condolences and prayers for the family's loss.

Grace was such a sweet person.  She was always very thoughtful when my dad and little girl Maddie was sick. Everytime I would see her she always asked about them to make sure me or my family didn’t need anything.  She will be greatly missed.  

When I first met Grace was when I first started at Corryton.  She was so sweet.  When I worked for her and Roger to help take care of the two aunts she was so nice.  I appreciate what Grace and Roger did for me and my family.    She will be greatly missed. 

Roger, so sorry for your loss.  Our love and prayers are with you during this time.

Grace has been a faithful friend since we met in our dormitory in college. She never failed to call me on my birthday every year since then. Although our in-person visits through the years were not as often as we would have liked, she was faithful to stay in touch and was a treasured prayer warrior whenever I have gone through difficult times. 
Grace was a giving, loving sister in Christ, who always challenged me to fully live out my faith. I will treasure my memories of her.  My prayers and those of my husband Dan will be with you, Roger, Joanne, and all your family.

To The Family,  I am so sorry for your loss and send to you my deepest heartfelt sympathy .  Grace worked with me in the Construction Maintenance Center on Parkside Drive.  She sat in the cubicle behind me before she retired.  She was such a beautiful person and had a sweet soul.  Grace was always positive and had only kind words to say about anyone.  I will miss her and cherish the time we spent together.   Be blessed and stay strong in the Lord!

My cousin, Gracie, was one of the kindest, most loving, and giving  souls I have ever known. Our visits during the Thanksgiving holidays at our grandmothers was such a special treat for us all. Thoughts and prayers for Roger, Joey, Eddie, and Joanne.  God Bless!

There will be only one Grace and she fit her name well.  She was a great lady and we are so grateful to have been a part of her life and for her to be a part of ours.  She will be missed by so many people but we all rejoice for her presence with her Lord.  Our prayers are with Roger and her family. 

Grace and I met in 1979 when we worked for the phone company.   We discovered we lived around the corner from each other and carpooled for 4 years after that.   We worked in the same office for about 10 years.   She served in my wedding.   I served in hers.    She came to know my entire family that lived in Knoxville.    I have had 3 outpatient medical procedures in the last 18 months where I needed a "driver".     She cheerfully took me to all of them.   Not to mention taking me to the Emergency Room a couple of times.   She even spent the night at my house the night of the first procedure in case I had any complications.   I have never known a more precious soul.    She was a perfect friend.   Always willing to help and/or listen.   I trusted her completely.   She was a great witness for Jesus.    She prepared well for her eternity.    I will spend the rest of my days trying to be more like her.   I considered her friendship priceless.   My heart is broken.   However, I DO know where she is.     She is happily dancing in the golden streets of Heaven.    I will miss her beyond what words can convey.     May Grace Rest in Peace.......  

Grace was a classmate. I will always remember her smile and how sweet she was. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

This is Jan Phillips. I have known Grace for a long time. I also worked for the company that is now AT&T. I also Square Danced with Grace. We went to many of the same Square Dances and  I remember a Square Convention we both attended. We shared many happy memories during those times. I also attended Calvary Church when Grace also was a member there. Four of us girl friends who had not seen each other in awhile met for lunch at Cracker Barrel nor that long ago and had the best time reliving alot of really good memories we all shared. We had planned on get together more often. I will miss Grace but I know she is at peace in Heaven with our Lord and Savior. I have Roger and the family in my prayers🙏

I’ve just been looking through my albums when Grace and I went to Israel in 2000. She was my room mate. I still remember our conversation we had 21 years ago not to mention the times we had together sense then. All the ballgames we watch together and singing in the choir. The times you both  have been in mine an Frank’s home and us in yours and all the meals we’ve had together. She was always so happy and knew how to make you feel so welcome. I’m so thankful for the good memories I hav of Grace. 

Grace was a dear friend and great person.  She was always ready to lend a helping hand and did so often. The coffee mess at Corryton Church will never be same without her endearing presence.
Prayers and condolences to Roger, their family and many friends.

Roger, I am so sorry to hear about Grace. Prayers for you and all the family during this time.

I always enjoyed talking with her at the car shows.

Roger, Joanne, Joe, Eddie & family: sorry to hear of Grace's home going. May God fill each of you with His 'New Grace' in days ahead and give you comfort, strength, & renewed joy. Grace & I worked together at Bellsouth, AT&T and she was always pleasant, joyful, having a smile not only on her face but within her heart.  When Grace retired she said "Ed, one day Helen will give you the 'Go' and you will get to retire too"!  Well so far that day has not arrived but maybe not before long.  May it comfort each of you by remembering Grace had trusted Christ as her savior and is now with Him & others who have gone on before.  [Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.} And also we know, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. {II Cor. 5:8] {Romans 8:38,39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.}  Praying friends, Ed & Helen Finley

Grace was a classmate and beautiful person inside and out. Was so saddened to hear of her passing. Know God will wrap His arms around Joanne and her entire family as you deal with your loss. My prayers and love to you all. Terri

George and I went to school with Grace. She was always very sweet and kind. Our hearts go out to her husband and family. May God protect and keep you during this time.

Roger,
We will always remember Gracie and you in our prayers.  She was a special lady and I enjoyed working with her for several years at Bellsouth.  She will have a large crown with many jewels for all she has done for many people.  

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Grace.  I went to high school with Grace and she was always so kind and sweet.  You are in my thoughts and prayers. 

I am so very sorry for your loss. I worked with Grace at BellSouth, AT&T several years ago. She was always such a nice friendly lady. I am sorry I lost touch with her but thought of her often. Thoughts and prayers for all the family.

I had the chance to work with Grace for several years at AT&T and Bell South.  She was always warm, always with a smile, and always with a kind word.  She was one of those people who would brighten a room and bring great energy with her; she will be missed.
