Grace was a wartime member of the Red Cross Voluntary Aid Division, going to England to “Mop up” after WWII. She was a tireless volunteer at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum.

Special Thanks to the staff at Lincoln Park Retirement Homes, who made the past few months enjoyable for Grace. Also, to the staff at West Lincoln Memorial Hospital for all the wonderful care and compassion they have shown.
