Ivy Grace Barnes,

Ages 82 when the life of an amazing grandmother sadly ended. Always caring for anyone and everyone
in life, very close to family she lived her early years with Bill, her husband they were very much
in love together. Unfortunately bill died in 1992 from a Heart attack leaving grace and family.
Grace then lived alone but started deteriorating after being diagnosed with diabetes. She then spent
most of her life with her Daughter (Anna) and family looking after her.

Towards the end of her life she spend time in care homes of which she had good and bad times,
meeting new friends but not being able to do much. Grace then deteriorated faster and went in
hospital after having a stroke, after spending some time in hospital she unfortunately passed away
in her sleep after suffering from another stroke.

Grace (Ma) meant a lot to her family and friends, I miss her dearly everyday because she was a
lovely grandmother. I hope she reunited with bill her husband and is now living in peace.

I miss you Ma, God bless you and granddad.

With love from Eleanor and Family

In Sympathy

So sorry for your loss. My nan passed away in July and it feels like my whole world has been taken away. On this site their memory can live on. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God bless you Grace. You share your name with my nan and I bet you were as proud of it as she was. You sound like you really were an Amazing Grace. x

What is Dying?

A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says 'She is gone'.

Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large now as when I last saw her. Her diminished size and total loss from my sight is in me, not in her.

And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gone there are others who are watching her coming over their horizon and other voices take up a glad shout 'There she comes!'

That is what dying is. An horizon and just the limit of our sight.

Lift us up, Oh Lord, that we may see further.

Look after your family and walk beside them always and forever. I hope your loving Husband was there to meet you and you are now reunited. I lost my lovely Nan 5 years ago, and I miss her so much every day. People don't realise what an impact Grandparents have on our lives. Our Nan's are like our second Mum's.
