In loving memory of Grace Maxine Gearhart, who received her angel wings surrounded by family on May 8, 2016 in Tualatin, OR, at the age of 84. Grace was a kind, gentle, loving soul who connected with children easily. She was active at her Methodist church and volunteered many years at the preschool there. Grace enjoyed spending her free time knitting, embroidering, putting puzzles together, and reading. She never forgot to sign a birthday card, “Love Grace, who loves you very much.” Grace was preceded in death by her parents Vernon and Hilda Carney and by her loving husband Ben Gearhart. They were married 11 years and had no children. She is survived by her brother, George Carney, and by sister-in-law Gwen Carney. She will be buried at Lincoln memorial Cemetery next to her loving family.
