I knew cousin Grace since I was a baby as her and my mother were great friends. I can honestly say that I have never met a kinder person than her.
She was fun to be around and we always shared a good laugh.
Rest in peace and may God be with you forever.

Our early memories of "Auntie Grace & Uncle Joe", as we called them, were on our holiday visits to their home were Auntie Grace was the perfect hostess with the warmest smile and the best hugs. The best thing about being there was seeing the closeness between our parents and Joe & Grace. Even though they didn't have a chance to spend much time together, the bond established when the four of them were young was always evident, evident also in the countless pictures of the four on the Milwaukee lakefront or out on the town. And it was no small coincidence that our moms shared the name Grace for they were both the essence of unconditional love. We will never forget Auntie Grace who is no doubt sharing a bright spot in heaven with our parents and all that have gone before. We hope that you may feel some small consolation in her eternal presence in your hearts. She will watch over you and remind you that she is still with you. Watch for those signs in your moments of grief.
Our deep and heartfelt condolences on this profound loss, and know that our family is always here for you in any small way that we may help.
Sincerely,
Dottie D'Acquisto Graham
