What a beautiful gift our heavenly father blessed us with when He gave us Gracie Jean Dobkins, a priceless treasure! She poured herself out for the ones she loved; and she loved everyone. No one was a stranger to her.
She blessed the lives of everyone around her and made life beautiful. Just as she tended to and nurtured her gardens, so she did with the people around her.
