Grace E Holgate

Grace Eleanor Holgate, 90, passed away on September 26, 2026, after a long and courageous battle with Alzheimer’s. She passed peacefully and comfortably with her family by her side leaving behind a lifetime of love, cherished memories, and a family who will miss her dearly.

Grace was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother whose family was her entire world. She is survived by her husband of 69 years, Bill, her 2 sons, Will and Craig; her 3 grandchildren, Will, Jr., Craig, Jr. and Becky and her 5 great grandchildren, Greyson, Miranda, Penelope, Hannah, and Walker. She was preceded in death by her youngest son, Bryan, and her parents Louis and Mary Glassier.

Grace had a special way of making everyone feel loved and welcomed. Whether through her delicious home-cooked meals and baking, her love of animals, life itself, or simply the warmth of her presence, she made the ordinary moments in life feel special.

Her greatest joy was her family, and the love she poured into each of them will live on for generations. Though our hearts are heavy, we find comfort in the countless memories, traditions, and love she leaves behind.

Forever cherished, forever missed, and forever in our hearts.

Grace will be laid to rest with a graveside service on October 2, 2026 at 10AM at Evergreen Cemetery in Carbondale, Colorado. For service details and condolences please go to https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/grand-junction-co/grace-holgate-13056754
