I am so sorry to hear of Grace’s passing. She was a wonderful person and it was a privilege to know her. She was one of the first volunteers I got to know when I started work at Central Lions. For over 15 years we worked together in the office and at special events. I would tell her she was given the name Grace for a reason as she would always give the blessing at Centre events. She will be missed by many. Sincere condolences to her family and friends.
