Grace M. Armstrong, also known as: "Mo Mo", "Mama Grace", "Grandma Grace", & "Grandma Horses"; was a loving mother, grandmother, and friend. She left this world suddenly on November 16, 2023 at the age of 91.
She was born to James and Grace Catalano (DiMaggio), on August 10, 1932. She married William J. Armstrong on March 31, 1951. Together, they had five children: Kathi, Joann, George, Tom, and Frank.
She has been a beckon of light and support to so many touched by her love and kindness. Grace loved humor, as well as to spread joy to those around her. She will be greatly missed but not forgotten for her endless and candid ability to make everyone around her laugh.
Grace loved spending time camping, horseback-trail riding with her family and friends. She loved baby-sitting so many children over the years, as well as for her grand & great grandchildren.
She enjoyed many varieties of music, and loved opera and singing. She was always the life of the party. In later life while residing at Delmar Gardens South Care Facility she lived for bingo, keno, and letting us know: "I won fifty-cents today", adult coloring, arts & crafts, getting her hair done, and socializing with the other residents & staff.
She was certainly loved by so many and will be greatly missed by her children, family, relatives and those that knew her. Her wish was to be cremated and requested a celebration of life be held in her honor. The family is planning for such to occur in the early part of 2024.
In lieu of flowers, donation in her honor to your local animal shelter, children charities re; St. Jude, Shiners, Barnes Children, etc.
