I worked with Grace at AAA when I first moved to Lansing in 1961 and enjoyed she & her family's friendship over many years. She was always a delight to be with, her smile was infectious and she will be missed by many. Sincere condolences to Grace's family & friends.

We knew Grace through the Parkinsons support group. She gave much of herself, her smile, and her gentle spirit to the group. Knowing her was a great gift to us.

Grace had a beautiful smile. I always looked forward to seeing her in Sunday School class. She was a sweet person. It was a joy to talk to her. I will miss her.

Aunt Grace was an amazing person! You never saw her without a smile on her face.

I have so many wonderful memories of the times that I spent with her and Uncle Roger while us kids were growing up.

May we all find peace in knowing that she has been reunited with my Uncle Roger.

My love, thoughts, and prayers are with her son's and their families, as well as with my Dad, during this very difficult time.

May she Rest In Peace
