Grace moved to Idaho in 2020 and lived in Idaho for 6 years, until she passed. Moving in with daughter Linda, she had many adventures. She traveled back to PA for family reunions 5 times, starting at the age of 94, and to Hawaii to visit her beloved granddaughter, Jaeda. She went to various musicals, jazz concerts in Boise, Christmas shows, etc. and always celebrated her birthday at Rupert’s in McCall with 5 to 10 other women.
