Mrs. Grace Lillian Wright

Grace Lillian Wright, of London, born October 26th, 1910, in her 94th year passed peacefully surrounded by her family on July 1, 2004. Grace will be joining her late husband Allen Wright (March 1980).

Grace was loved by one and all. She was an inspiration to everyone who knew her. Grace had the zest for life that one could only hope to have. She enjoyed life to its fullest until the sweet bitter end.

A retired teacher who left a mark in every child’s heart and dedicated those days of her life to each and every child who crossed her path. Those who worked with Grace, and those who had Grace as a teacher, were fortunate. Grace loved her work and put her heart and soul into her teaching. She was always living her teaching days through her grandchildren’s and great grandchildren’s education with a true and keen interest. Grace had a remarkable dedication to her teaching career.

Grace was one of a kind, a class act, a classy lady in the true form, but foremost, in every sense of the way, she was a terrific mother, a fabulous grandmother, and a wonderful great grandmother to her number one fans, her family, her two daughters Connie and Don Arnold, and Carole and Bob Attwood, her grandchildren Holly and Frank Gerrits, Steven and Jennifer Arnold, Jason and Erin Attwood, Allan and Sarah Attwood, Sarah and Carl Bonello, and Jill Attwood and her great grandchildren whom she adored Jordan, Geoffrey, Jory, Victoria, Matthew, Dylan, Hunter, and Ethan.

We will all greatly miss you. You were our mentor and our role model for the rules of life. Your inspiration, your drive and your zest for life has left us all with a remarkable amount of respect and gratitude for you as well as life itself. You will always be with us in our hearts and in our memories. We love you. May you rest in peace.
