Grace graduated from Centralia College in 1978 in Food Service Management working at Midwestern Regional Centre from 1978 to 1986. She settled into life as a full-time mom devoting her time to family. As the family grew, Grace spent many hours tending to vegetable gardens, flowers, baseball, soccer, swimming lessons, hockey and church activities including Sunday school teacher and youth leader.

She was always making sure her family was organized and where they had to be. Her love of preserving and canning filled the fruit cellar shelves ready for winter.
