                          **********************************************

 

Unlike so many, Grace takes time to hear a neighbor’s troubles and take shut-ins meals. In spite of her own aches and pains, she shows she deeply cares about how others feel. What is her formula that so appeals to neighbors, friends, and strangers on the street? Sincerity, eye contact, and a smile will shine a light in lives of those you meet. I’m touched by her philosophy of life. She doesn’t state this, but I see it’s true: “Find joy in every day, in spite of strife and pain.” All would do well to share her view.
