Grace was born in Parma, Ohio in 1924. She attended St. Charles Grade School and Lourdes Academy High School. She was employed at American Steel and Wire Company in market research and sales development. She was active with the USO (United Service Organization), serving the military during World War II. After the war, she married her first grade classmate, Robert Kane who was her husband for more than 61 years.
Grace was active in many charitable and church organizations throughout the years including the Christ Child Society, the Legion of Mary, and St. Bridget of Kildare Renewal Team. She became a homemaker who dedicated her life to her children and grandchildren.
She enjoyed all types of music, traveling, volunteering, and financial planning which she continued into her latter years. She coordinated many social events but mostly enjoyed her large family gatherings.
Grace was known for her humility, wisdom, kindness, humor and strong moral convictions. Today her family mourns their loss but consider them blessed as they treasure the memories of her unending love and support.

She was a pleasant and kind person. I remember her and her husband well from the days I was a student at St. Bridget. God Bless.
Dear Kane Family,
My deepest sympathies for the loss of your mom and grandmother. You’ll be in my prayers and thoughts.
What a perfect name for a lovely lady. Grace was truly that, and more. Her kindness and gentle nature is reflected in her family and will live on through them. She was my mother Marge’s best friend for over 70 years and they helped see each other through the good and bad times. Grace’s devotion to her husband Bob and her children is an inspiration to all who knew her.
