Grace worked for the Santa Barbara County Housing Authority as a bookkeeper until her retirement in 1996.  Grace loved to shop and could make a pie at the drop of a hat.  She also loved to sew.  She always seemed to be hemming pants or skirts of a friend or a friend of a friend.

She was preceded in death by her husband William and all six of her siblings.  She is survived by her four children William Jr. (Karen), Ann Kemper (Ron), Patty Hunt and Lisa McCune (Bob). She was an amazing grandmother to five grandchildren Trey, Joe, Domenica, Shelby and Wyatt.

The family would like to thank her devoted friend Rita Rosso who sat beside her.
