Grace E. Bailey Died November 5, 2014 at the age of 88. Born Evangeline Grace Fink May 18, 1926 in Lansing, the sixth child of eight to Rose C. (Ott) and Henry J. Fink. Her parents and all of her siblings preceded Grace in death. Her loving husband David of 39 years, her special niece Sandra Kowalczyk of Alto, MI, and many nephews and nieces survive her. Grace graduated from Resurrection high school and then worked at several jobs. At the age of 26 she enrolled at Albion College and earned her way through by waiting tables in Marshall, taking a Greyhound bus each day to school. She met her husband in Traverse City in a casual encounter, and they were together thereafter. Many will miss Grace because she brought laughter and happiness to all who knew her. She exemplified the Divine and human love which surrounds us. Her final tribute to we who remain was the generous gift of her body to Michigan State University.
