I shall miss Grace terribly. I have some lovely memories. We had some great shopping days. From Philadelphia, to Florence and Assisi in Italy, to London, and of course not forgetting Westport in County Mayo, Ireland.
Every time my sisters and I have a Bellini or an Espresso Martini we shall think of Grace and raise our glasses!
Slainte Grace
