Grace Elizabeth Metzger

Grace Elizabeth Metzger (née Mechling) passed peacefully on December 10, 2025, at the home of her son, Chuck, in Harwich, Massachusetts.

Grace was born on May 1, 1933, in Surrey, England, to William Mechling and Mildred Cobb Mechling. When she was 16 years old, her family moved to Germantown, Pennsylvania.

Grace was the loving mother of Paul Gordon, Brenda Pace, Charles Dunn, and Michael Dunn. She was predeceased by her two older sisters and her brother. She is survived by her children, Paul Gordon, Brenda Pace, Charles Dunn and Michael Dunn, and five grandchildren as well as four great-grandchildren, who will miss her dearly.

In her senior years, Grace moved to Haddonfield, New Jersey, where she enjoyed participating in many activities, including aquatics classes, and cherished trips to Atlantic City. For the past eight years, she attended Trinity Health Life daily, where she formed treasured friendships.

One of Grace’s most recent joys was meeting her great-grandson, baby Zachary Dunn.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations in Grace’s name be made to your local animal shelter.
