Always a Kind Person
I met Grace when we were in high school and I graduated with her brother, Cliff. Grace was a very kind, caring person who always had a smile for those she interacted with. After going our separate ways for many years, it was exciting to reconnect with Grace and see that warm, beautiful smile again in 2023. It brought me such sadness to hear she had gained her wings, but I know you’re sharing that beautiful smile with everyone in Heaven! Praying for strength and comfort for Cliff, and Grace’s family.

She Lit Up the Room With Her Smile
While I didn’t know Grace real well or for a long time, my memories of her will be her huge smile and the way she truly cared for others. She will be missed by many in so many ways.
A dear friend!
Grace was a wonderful person, a wonderful co-worker and just a dear friend. Everyone is heartbroken with her sudden passing. She loved her son, Cassie and grandchildren! She would move mountains to be with her family and help her family. She would also move mountains to be with her friends and help her friends. Hugs and love to you Grace, a true friend! My prayers to Seneca and family! Tricia
TAKEN TO SOON
Grace was always someone who could lift your spirits. She always had a smile and a hug for you. Her grandchildren were the apple of her eye. She will truly be missed in this world.
Wonderful Person!
Grace was a wonderful person and a dear friend. I served on the Central Clinic board with her and she became a dear friend of all of us. Grace’s wisdom, many contributions, and presence will be greatly missed! She loved her family and her community! She was a woman of great character and will always be remembered for her smile and love.

Grace will be missed!
Grace was full of grace. I worked with her for many years as a consultant for her bank, and every time we met I got to know more about her, and could always tell how much she appreciated my help. She was never without a smile.
