Grace worked at Ladish Corporation (now ATI Forged Products) as an executive secretary for 40+ years, then after retirement she started her own business, GM Secretarial, at 65 years of age.  She was a lifelong caregiver to many, including her husband Matthew, and her companion Don.  Grace had a passion for gardening and was known for her spaghetti and meatballs and her Italian vinaigrette dressing.  She will be remembered as the only Italian we know that hated garlic!

A special thank you to the staff at Village at Manor Park (Memory Care Unit) for the care and compassion shown to the family for the last several years of Grace’s life.
