What a wonderful soul this world lost. I went to my first furniture market with Grace about 25 years ago. I was so green, and had so much to learn. Grace took me under her wing, as she flew around that market like she was 20. I had never been so tired in my life. But Grace just kept on going.. so I just kept on keeping up with her. She had a job to do, but she still took the time to give me advice. I will never forget her for that. I was sad to hear of her passing but I feel sure , there are many she touched, with her kind and open warmth. Yes, many more like me, who have not seen her in years, but will never forget her.
