Grace worked as a cook in the dietary department at Cordele Health & Rehab. She enjoyed watching classic television, particularly westerns and The Waltons. A devoted Christian and lifelong Baptist, she cherished reading her Bible and prayed for the salvation of her family. She also had a deep love for cats.
