I met Grace in 2010 shortly after I moved to Newburyport. We met because we were part of a Foreign Film movie group. She invited the group to her home once a week where she had a big Apple TV. The group was led by a wonderful teacher, Richard Rantacore. We spent many evenings discussing movies. During this time it we grew to depend on Grace and her outgoing nature.
In Newburyport she was active attending lectures and always discovering subjects she was interested in. Grace had a thirst for knowledge, always curious about people in other cultures. Her knowledge of film was deep and extensive and we all learned from her. After she moved to Brooksby Village she asked us to her apartment where we continued watching foreign film. This continued until the pandemic. Even then we met in Zoom meetings.
I miss her greatly. She was the star of our group and we valued her intelligence. and warm personality.
I send my deep sympathy to her family for the loss of this wonderful woman.

Grace truly lived up to her name. She was curious, independent, and a great contributor to our Foreign Film club. We’ll miss her dearly and I’m sending condolences to her family. She was a good Bridge player too!

I have shared so many wonderful times with Grace; book club discussions, foreign film gatherings, bridge and a fabulous barge trip through the burgundy area of France. Her optimism, love of life and wit never failed. Will miss her very much, Sandy Jenkins

To Grace's family, I am so sorry for your loss and send you prayers for comfort and peace. Grace was an inspiration for me to keep going, find new experiences. Grace and I first met in a bridge class at Brooksby Village where we managed to turn bridge in to fun, we actually laughed so much we disrupted the class regularly. I was brand new to Massachusetts and Grace was the wonderful first friend to invite me to join her for an outing to Gloucester. This was soon followed by other wonderful excursions to the beautiful Cliff House hotel in Maine for coffee and home baked muffins and soaking in the sunny ocean views. Grace was game to tackle the Ogunquit ocean walking trail for a bit, she was fearless. She also introduced me to The Wentworth By The Sea Hotel in NH, another gorgeous place for lunch. Because of Grace, Newberryport is one of my favorite places to visit and walk along the water with a stop at Michael's Harborside.
Grace was so much fun to be with, and I will always be grateful for the many wonderful days we shared together in Hilton Head--terrific memories of a Great Lady.

My name is Bob Jasperson. My good friend Claire Brogan introduced me to Grace approximately 16 years ago
And she was a good friend until she past away. Claire and I would take her out to lunch, dinners and events in the Newburyport area. She was a great Jumbo word game player so was I. We would call each other we couldn’t come up with scrambled word. I will miss her. Condolences to the Grace family for your loss.
