Grace was my childhood friend . We went to junior high and high school together  .  Grace and I had So much fun .. she taught me how to shave my legs lol .. and took me on fun adventures with her church ..  I remember camping at camp Dearborn with her mom and the dances there . Listening to 80s music and dancing in her basement to Led Zeppelin stairway to heaven .  I just Found out she died 3 years ago . We lost touch after she married again , but I always Thought about her and wanted to see her . I’m so sad to here about this and I’m pretty sure she’s an angel now in Gods hands ..  I will Always remember her and never forget our memories.. love you Grace Lisa 

She was my 2nd IPU manager and a good friend. Always want to know how to make things better for everybody. She was very strong and I know from the start that she loves Jesus. I love my Odyssey IPU days because she was supportive. I saw her last when I had A tea party at Lisa’s House. She was gorgeous and full of life. God bless you David and kids.

Grace was a beautiful woman of course, but when I think of her I think of  her courage. She battled that all-consuming, painful, and debilitating disease for such a long time; we should all admire her for rising to meet all the struggles it represented. But, even before the disease Grace returned to college and earned a degree years after graduating from high school,  a difficult, challenging, and courageous move. Courage and beauty - Grace.

My wife Norma and I met Grace  and David Adams at MS Drug Informational meetings.  We developed a tremendous friendship because both Grace and David are such high character people that  had shown many values  like family first,  help others when you have an opportunity, love and care for people when true need exists.  No one carried out those Godly values better than Grace and David. I can't count the number of times MS patients were invited to dinners at the there home or Grace was cleaning the home of a seriously limited MS patient or delivering medical products to an MS patient home  or visiting a sick patient or a friend in the hospital in Cleveland  or Grace and  Dave coming to the aid of an MS patient after an auto accident to assist.  I personally saw or experienced these issues mentioned. 
The bond that Grace and David have for each other was evident to everyone around them. Grace and David not only expressed the  Christian values in a subtle manner, but they both LIVED those  values as so few of us can achieve today. This is why I know Grace is with God today in heaven.

Words cannot express how much you meant to me.  You were like another mother,  a starter I never had,  and a best friend.  I am honored to be a part of your life.  I love you! 

Grace and I  were thick as thieves back on the day. We all grew up on Capitol. All the Clark kids and mine (Jaclyn and Jimmy) all at the pool or on the boats. We shared the love of coffee and wine, we would be drinking either or throughout.  It was truly a tight bond, like sisters. I miss her smile and laughter.  Peace to you my friend.  I love you and always will.

Several years ago, my husband had major heart surgery.  Gracie came to visit with him so I could run errands for an hour.  When I left they were both in reclining loungers, laughing and having fun remembering all the nurse escapades they experienced together.   When I returned it was so quiet, except for both of them snoring loudly.  They had fallen asleep.  We have laughed about this for years.  Gracie was a good hearted person, one who seemed to always find the time to help others.  We will certainly miss her smile and laughter.  Our prayers and thoughts with David and the family.

Dear Emily and family,
Our hearts go out to you and your family, she was a beautiful person and will be remember by all. I believe in my heart God chose her for the gift that she shared with everyone that she touched here on earth.
I believe she is with all the children and elderly that left their families here on earth,  she is using her special gift, talent and love for everyone in heaven now. She has truly left her mark here on earth and is now making a new mark above.  Her birth name "Grace" given to her by her mother Emily says it all.
She will be the brightest star shining down on all of us from above, letting us know she is there while we lay our weary heads. Letting us know she is alright, that she is in a better place, helping those in heaven who need her, along with being your guiding angel.

Prayers
Don and Cindy Schultz
