When I started volunteering at Riverview Manor, after the death of my mother-in-law, Grace was the first person I was assigned to spend time with and help. Despite her blindness and being confined to a wheelchair she was a joy to be with and was a wealth of knowledge on Peterborough, Lakefield, and Douro. Her experiences as a nurse in WWII Quebec were riveting. My life has been blessed and enriched having been able to know Grace and, in a small way, maker her final couple of years a little easier to take. Sleep well, my friend.
