Grace was sincerely devoted to the Catholic Church and especially to the Blessed Mother. Grace loved to have fun, always telling jokes. She always remembered her family on birthdays and special occasions, sending cards. She was always busy fixing everybody’s hair in the family and taking care of her two children who had special needs. She loved to play cards. Grace was incredibly kind, accepting, and loving to all who were blessed to know her.
