    I send my heartfelt condolences to the Dykstra and Yearley families. It is with sadness that we say goodbye to a wonderful lady, Grace. I haven’t known Grace for a long time but, at church, I found it a pleasure to chat with her. Also, I enjoyed, as many have, her musical talent that gave both glory to God and pleasure to us. She will be sadly missed. May the countless, wonderful memories you have experienced with her through the years bring you comfort. Unfortunately, I am away this weekend but you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
