Grace you will be greatly missed. You truly are one of a kind, and helped train many of us nurses in this community. I will always remember our time working together in the ICU night shift. Lots of laughs, some tears, and many interesting nights. You will always have a very special place in my heart.
Grace, you will be missed greatly. Having been able to work with you in the ICU changed my life . You were such a great teacher, friend, and ICU family.. You were able to see how the nurses you trained grow and expand their knowledge in other areas. I truly thank you and will miss you.
Our dear Grace has gone from us all and we, her family in Scotland will cherish her memory in our hearts. Grace has been a big part of our family even though she lived so far from us. She was with us at the important times of births, marriages and deaths of close family and also for fun times in many holidays May God rest your soul Grace with so much love from Elspeth, Maureen, Kenneth and the extended family.xxx
Elspeth so sorry to hear of Grace’s passing. We spoke via video a couple of weeks ago and it was clear that the end was near and she was fully reconciled to it. Grace was a fine nurse, trustworthy and most generous person whom I a proud to have a known as a friend and work colleague.

Very sad at the loss of a great friend and nursing colleague. We first met in Birmingham UK, some 50 years ago and have kept in touch via visits and mail ever since. I will always treasure the many happy times we had in travelling the USA and sailing to the Bahamas.
Rest in peace dear Grace
Maggie and Dave
