I can hardly remember not knowing you. We shared many things over the years: taking road tests for driving, God Mothering each others sons, helping Mom with special dinners, more Christmases than I can count, and so many other things and events. I will miss you dear sister. Say Hi to my Mom for me.
Nancy Amodeo-Butler left a message on December 21, 2012:
I have fond memories of playing school in the basement as a child and annoying the rodent(s) to the point of getting bit once and the house always being neat as a pin. A smile touches my face as I am typing and the memories come back as if yesterday. Though years later the miles often separated the heart never did. Love you Aunt Grace.

It is with heavy hearts that we record this message. It is such a tragic loss and words cannot express how we truly feel. In time memories and stories will relieve the pain but the empty space in our family cannot be filled. Grace may you rest in peace.
