There could not have been a more perfect name for Grace.
She embodied the name and her sweet nature and impeccable style will be remembered. My love goes out to all my cousins and family touched by the passing of this amazing woman!

Gene, Brenda and the entire family.. Grace worked on my team at ACT for many years and was one of my favorites. She always had stories of her many family parties which earned her the title of employee most likely to party, to walking around with a pretzel stick in her mouth pretending to be George Burns with a cigar, she was so much fun to be around and one of my most memorable staff members! I have missed her since she retired and still do. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
