Obituary of Grace Wise
Grace was born in Belfast Ireland on February 17, 1933. She was raised in Loughmourne, Castleblayney, County Monoghan until she was 16 when she was brought to the United States and left by her parents to continue her education at the People Bible School in Colorado Springs, CO. where she graduated in 1954. She held several jobs before she was married in 1956. During her marriage she mainly lived in Colorado Springs, Colorado and for a short period in South Carolina where her first child in 1956 was stillborn and her oldest daughter, Roselle, was born in 1958. Soon after returning to Colorado Springs with her young daughter she acquired her United States Citizenship and had two more daughters, Carmel in 1961 and Heather in 1964. In 1970 she divorced and raised her three daughters as a single mom. While being a single mom she worked for Peak Clinical Laboratory where she learned to be a phlebotomist which became her primary occupation for the rest of her working years. In 1984 when Peak Clinical Laboratory closed she worked for Saint Francis Hospital as a phlebotomist for the next five years. She medically retired in 1990.
For the next 23 years she dedicated her life to helping her family and friends. There was nothing she would not do for family and friend. The one word she did not use or learn was no.
Her grandson Eric was born in 1984 and her second grandson Steven was born in 1991. Her great grand daughter Jaelyn was born in 2011.
She was able to return to visit Ireland several times during her life in the United States and her family has decided to return her home where her heart never left.
