Grace was a hard worker and gave 110% to everything she did, living by the motto " leave things in better shape than you found them". She freely shared her talents with all, among them her love for entertaining and cooking. Her houses were decorated for all seasons and holidays including changing of pictures and curtains. She was famous for her homemade soups and Christmas stolen. Grace was also generous with her time, volunteering at church and several nursing homes. She loved to play cards and instilled that passion in her grandchildren, playing many hands of 500 Rummy with them. She loved to dance and glided across the dance floor with the love of he life, her husband Ed. She enjoyed a good brandy old fashioned, and in her later years, your drink was never safe when she was around. She loved to travel, having gone to Poland, Hawaii, Alaska and Rome where she and the church choir had a private audience with the pope. To meet Grace was to love her.
