I will always remember Grace from next door in Kingston. I loved having her and Gerry as my neighbors. I'm so sorry to hear of her passing in January. I am just hearing this today.

Grace,
You were one of a kind!
You and Jerry supported our Dad and his family when Frank passed away too soon, and then you did the same for us, taking on the role of grandparents, when Nanny passed too soon as well.
We loved our calls with you from Singapore – always so happy and eager to hear about what was going on in our lives at that time.
We’d play guitar or saxophone for you, or show off our latest gymnastics moves, and when we finished our routine or concert, you’d let out that endearing Grace laugh and say ‘Oh my goodness … isn’t that something!’ If we had a competition coming up, you’d say ‘I bet you’re going to be the best’ – and if we pointed out that there were a few others who were better, you’d say ‘Nope. Not this time. You’re going to be the best – I know it.’ You weren’t always right about that, but you always said the right thing.
We couldn’t visit very often because of where we live, but enjoyed our time with you when we did visit. You did the little things right that made us feel like you cared … perfectly wrapped Christmas presents, or a surprise gift with a story ‘I saw this at that little shop in Plymouth Center and thought it was perfect for you’ … always a story – we’ll miss your stories!
You also had a way of making the people around you feel special. You’d use our names when asking questions and that just made every interaction with you feel so personal. There was never a call or time spent together that you forgot to remind us that we were loved.
We’re so lucky to have known you and luckier still to be related! You had a heart of gold. We wish we could have spent more time together but cherish the time we did have deeply.
We love you Grace!
Isabella & Julianna

Gramma! You saw the world in your family, there was never a question on how much you love me, or any of your grandkids. and you never failed to tell me what everyone was up to.
The best thing I ever heard you say was “ LL gramma GL” I liked listening to your stories. I loved to hear what you had to say. Although our sleepovers as kids, the tree in your front yard. Christmas parties, at grammas, and trick or treating in your neighborhood, is a special kind of yesterday. My heart strings pulled the tightest when I got time, to share my son with you. As I write this, your great grandson is doing a presentation of his family, and your pictures together are being passed around his 4 th grade classroom. ( we both know it’ll be lengthy) we laughed, ((complained)), and related, on how Cameron, never stopped talking. But, more so, you loved to talk about the relationship Cameron has with my dad.
A memory that made a home in my heart; Before Cameron started school, and we’d visit, you’d holler as we walk in “ has he been on the school bus!?” you alwaysss told me “everything changes after the school bus” So ..when the time finally came for the school bus, And nothing changed at all. You said “ we’ll, I knew it, thats because he’s a good boy” I don’t just think about that everytime I see a school bus, I think about that every time I worry about him. Your constant “ he’s a good boy” in my back pocket. I’ll forever hear you say “ he’s a good boy” and that is a true gift. You always had a cute rhyme to your reason.. and I am going to miss you, a lot. I’m extremely lucky to be your granddaughter. And even more lucky you got to love and be loved by cam. I know, you love ace, too! buttt, “we don’t no much about that one” yet. Stay tuned, what we do know is, you’re watching every bit, with papa by your side. Allll of us, are what you lived for, so wherever you go, I know it’s not far. I love you! -Jesse Xoxo
Jessica, Shane, Cameron & Ace.

So sorry for your loss. I loved Grace like a sister. Jerry, Grace, Herb, and I went on a trip out West to visit her sisters and families. We also vacationed in St Augustine, Florida with Grace and Jerry. We created a lot of memories, had great times, and many laughs. Grace referred to her boys as my three sons. Love you Grace. Your friend Sheila

Grace was such a big presence throughout our lives. We were at her house almost as often as we were at our own when we were very little, and through the years, her home was a welcoming place we could drop in at any time for a visit. She loved hearing about our families' adventures and she enjoyed sharing stories about her kids and all the grandkids. Even over the past couple of years, Grace was very good about keeping track of where everyone lived and what was going on in their lives. She had an amazing relationship with her three sisters and that bond helped us be close to our aunts, even though they lived across the country. Grace was a bit of a character and we all enjoyed her personality, stories, and uniqueness.
Grace will be missed by all of us,
Jill, John, Paul, Anne, Scott, Kay, Isabella, Julianna, Donna, Ericka, Mathieu, Karli, Cheryl, Charlie, Nicole, Ryan, and Jacob

Dear Grace,
It was such a pleasure spending time speaking with you over the years, I wish there were other times we could have seen one other, but when we did get together they were great conversations and time well spent. I have several photos of the graduations when the kids graduated in 2011 and 2013 when must of your grandchildren were able to make the summer gathering. I hope it will provide some great memories for the family. I miss you Grace and hold on to those great memories. Love you, Fe

We are going to miss you very much. I loved our quiet chats at the family get togethers about everything and nothing at the same time. You loved to have updates on the kids and watching them, especially seeing Taylor swim. You kept an eye on my gram when she was at Laurel Woods with you and I’m not sure I ever thanked you for that. I’m sure you have a lot of catching up to do with Jerry up there in Heaven. Until we see you again.
Love you, Bailey

Dear Grandmother,
You will be missed very much.
Ever since I was young, I couldn't wait to visit you
( everyone knew you were my favorite) and I always dreaded the day when we had to say our goodbyes.
I feel so lucky to have spent so much time with you during my university years and the summer of 2020.
Thank you for always listening to my never ending stories. You never interrupted me or got confused, instead you often agreed with me. Which, at times, I thought was a little strange.
I remember the time you told me " sometimes you just gotta have a drink ." And safe to say I have literally taken that to heart and have used that as a motto often " I just gotta have a drink". (Grandma's advice )
All the memories I made with you have become the treasure in my heart.
Although I was very sad to hear the news that you had left us , I am able to understand better that you were in a lot of pain and needed to be with Papa.
I will continue to tell you my stories with every detail possible and will hear that sweet little "Oh Tara"
Love you grandmother .
Love ,
Your granddaughter Tara
