wording for deceased grandparents

On our wedding programs, I am planning to list our parents and grandparents right about our wedding party members.  My grandparents are still alive, but all of my fiances grandparents have passed away.  

I was thinking -

Grandparents of the Bride
Jerry and Pam Deen
Leroy and Sara Michaels

Grandparents of the Groom
The Late Ron Lee and The Late Ruth Lee
The Late Wyatt and The Late Judy Kestler

Is this the proper way to word this?
Thanks!

    We did it like this:

    Grandparents of the Bride
    Mr and Mrs. Grandfather of the Bride
    Mr. Grandfather of the Bride

    And at the bottom we put

    In Loving Memory:
    Grandmother of the Bride

    You can see mine in my bio...under DIY.

    But we pretty much did it like Baystateapple.  We listed our living grandparents at the top (between parents are wedding party).  Then at the bottom, we put:


    We Remember
    Our day would not be complete without remembering our grandparents who are not here to share in our special day, but still in our hearts:

    Name 1
    Name 2
    Name 3

  • We listed on one side our wedding party, including parents and grandparents (still alive)

    On the next page at the bottom, under our "Thank you's" we put a header saying "With Love, We Remember..." and under that a little blurb saying something along the lines of unfortunately some loved ones can't be here, but we want to remember them, etc (can't remember word for word).  We listed our deceased grandparents under this.
