My deepest sympathy to the Grumieaux family.

I am so sorry and sad for the passing of Rose Marie. My heart goes out to my cousins Brian, Greg and Nanette! My prayers are with you all as well as all the rest of the extended family. The Lord knew what he was doing taking Rose Marie to be with her husband Bobby.
This is about as bitter sweet as it gets.
May the Lord be in the hearts of all of the family to help us through this time.
So a little story to tell…I think… I wasn’t suppose to be around any horse’s when I was being watched for by Joy and Nanette. Needless to say the horse ran me over and they hid me at the Grumieaux house with ice packs, lol. So from then on I knew I could be safe somewhere from my Mom, lol. Lots of good memories in your household.
I always loved your parents and family. My hearfelt condolences.
We extend our deepest sympathy to the family of Rose Marie Grumieaux. She was a kind woman, faithful to the Lord.
Nanette, Mel and family,
So very sorry for the loss of your mother so soon after your father’s passing. May God bless all with peace, love and strength through this sad time.
