Jean Ann Grace

GRACE, Jean Ann, age 56, of Temple Terrace, left our presence to forever be in our hearts on July 2, 2016. She was born in Dearborn County, IN on January 1, 1960, the daughter of Rosalie Riggs and the late William Kippler. Jean graduated from Lawrenceburg High School, class of ’78, before meeting the love of her life, Steve Grace. They were married for 36 years and raised two amazing children, Zachariah Louis and Stephanie Dante. The family moved to Florida in 1989 to pursue new dreams and grow a family. Jean was co-owner/operator of the family business, Grace’s Hydro-Organic Garden Center for over 12 years. She will be remembered as the face of the business and ray of sunshine to the entire community. Jean was a beautiful, open-hearted, kind, gentle, loving woman to everyone she met. She always had the ability to put a smile on your face no matter what the situation. She was an incredible daughter, sister, wife and mother, who will be dearly missed by all who knew her. Jean is survived by her husband and life-partner, Steve; daughter, Stephanie; son, Zach (Bianca); mother, Rosalie; sisters, Connie and Amy; brother, Billy (Kerry); and many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins. She was an angel who walked amongst us. A celebration of her life will be held, 6:00 PM Saturday, July 9th, at Laurel Wood Garden, 20943 Hunter Hill Dr., Dade City, Florida, 33523. Please send pink flowers in honor of Jean’s strength, courage and battle against breast cancer. Words of comfort may be expressed at www.blountcurryterraceoaks.com
