September 17, 2013

I hung out with her only a few times with my husband, Richie Sadler. Although i didn't really "know" her, i loved her right off the bat - her outlook on life was so upbeat and she had such a great sense of humor. She joked about being the "designated driver" and i just thought, oh that's cool, she's offering to be the DD. It wasn't until later in the evening when my husband told me she was joking around (due to her vision issues, driving was not an option) that i realized how cool she truly was. She didn't take herself too seriously, but she was such a giver, Mary Grace was simple JOY personified.
Janet, Sean, Paul, and family and all the many, many close friends Mary Grace had...I am so very sorry for your loss. I was blessed to meet Mary Grace and blessed to have heard such fun, wonderful and sometimes crazy stories about her in Richie's high school days. She truly left an amazing mark on this world.

Also, I have NEVER seen a funeral home with such an amazingly long line of people waiting to pay their respects. The line wrapped around the building! I wasn't able to attend, but i drove past the funeral home and almost had to stop the car to cry...but not out of sadness, but by seeing how loved Mary Grace truly was. Janet, thank you for bringing her into the world. I can't imagine the heartbreak you feel...but thank you for allowing all of to share in the joy that your daughter created during her far-to-short time on this earth.

My prayers are with you guys,
Love,
Becca

I only knew Mary Grace through my sister Lynn Knecht and niece Maureen Newcamp. And I thought how courageous she was for all that she did in life not allowing her disability to hold her back. She touched everyone's life in that way and she is truly in God's arms now and surrounded by angels. We always question how can things like this happen but our time here is short and her loved ones will be with her again and forever. Susan Anton

Eileen Messenger

Many many years ago Jason and I went to Pittsburgh to watch our first Steelers home game. Mary Grace made it so we never wanted to leave. From that day on we had the strongest bond. She touched my life. She spoiled my kids. She loved my husband and she was ALWAYS there for all of us. She helped keep me sane, she made me laugh, she inspired me. She lived life to the fullest! MG was my girl. My husband's cousin, my children's Godmother, my sister. She was a friend to our friends and if you loved us she loved you and you knew it. I am heartbroken for our loss and for Janet, Paul and Sean and all of the kids that she loved so much. I pray to God my kids will never forget what a beautiful person she was. I know I will never forget her! Pittsburgh will never ever be the same without MG and our lives will never be the same without her.

If you never met MG it's too late. God called her home and you missed your chance. Her spirit will live on in those who loved and knew Mary Grace. Rest in Peace Mary Grace. We love you and we always will! ?

My heartfelt sympathy to the family on the tragic loss of Mary
Grace. We met about 3 years ago at the Rochester Inn and found a connection through Sunny Jim's. I found Mary Grace to be a strong person who dealt with her blindness and her every day life of which we all have come to learn from her to make the best of your life
Full speed ahead.
I pray that your fond memories will take you well into the tomorrow's and that your strong faith will help you through the grieving process.
My heart goes out to everyone who struggles to try to understand a life taken too soon. I am sad and know that many share your grief with you.
It was such a wonderful site to see all the flowers and condolences at the funeral home. This was such a tribute to know how well respected
and loved by so many who knew Mary Grace.
I was blessed to have crossed paths with her.

Aunt Janet, Sean and Paul
I can hardly find the words to express the pain in my heart at the loss of your sweet daughter and sister and my cousin Mary Grace. If anyone could have been bitter or angry about her circumstances it was Mary Grace, but she choose to reach out every day with her amazing smile, her bubbly personality and a helping hand to those in need. She was truly a special person and I loved her dearly. I will never forget her. Love you,

Although we have only known you for a short period of time, you have mananged to touch each of our hearts and we will miss you dearly. Our deepest condolences to the Carmody family.

September 10, 2013

Life is a journey of sweetness and sorrow
Of yesterday's memories and hopes for tomorrow
Of pathways we choose and detours we face
with patience and humor, courage and grace
Of joys that we've shared and of people we've met
Who have touched us in ways we will never forget.
Although no words of sympathy can ease the loss you bear, still may you find some comfort knowing others truly care

Mary Grace was so excited about regaining some vision last week. How premature for her to now lose her life robbing us from her cheerful presence. I was privileged to be her eye surgeon for the past 10 years or more. She always was grateful and battled with grace!

I first met Mary Grace when I became a server at Carmody's restaurant in 1972. I watched her grow through the years and she was always the "kid" with the most energy. Jan and boy's, we are so very sorry for your loss, word's cannot express your pain at the loss of a child. I'm sure she's spending quality time with her dad and Mrs. C. as they were there to welcome her home. Peace be with you.

Nasiadka Family

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
