Everett E. Grace
d. December 16, 2022
GILFORD - Everett E. Grace, 94, after a brief period of declining health, passed away peacefully at Concord Hospital-Laconia on December 16, 2022 with his daughter and grandson Curtis by his side.
Everett was born in Tamworth, New Hampshire on May 29, 1928 to Guy and Florence (Eldridge) Grace. Soon after graduating from Kennett High School, Everett married his wife of 61 years Shirley (Brown) Grace also of Tamworth who passed away in 2011.
The couple settled in Laconia and Everett took a position as a draftsman for Scott & Williams Corp until he joined the US Army in 1951, serving during the Korean War. He went on to work for the US Forest Service as a Civil Engineer Technician in 1966 until he retired in 1991.
For many years, weekends would find Everett at the summit of Gunstock Mountain safely unloading skiers.
Everett had a witty sense of humor, and never missed an opportunity to play golf year-round while wintering in Florida. He had many friends and kept busy as an avid gardener, and with Friday night cards games, cribbage, bowling, fishing, hunting and waltzing his way across the dance floor with his wife.
Everett is survived by his three children, Brian Grace of Gilford, Bruce Grace of Tamworth, and Sandra Grace of Gilford; his grandchildren, Curtis Monier of Gilford, Melissa Ricker and her husband Aaron Ricker of Sandwich, and Christopher Grace of Tamworth.
Everett has touched many over these 94 years in the community and is sure to be missed.
A graveside service with Military Honors will be held in the spring of 2023 at the family lot in Pine Grove Cemetery, Gilford. There will be no visiting hours.
