Grace Monroe Gibson

Grace’s name perfectly describes her graceful personality, greeting others with a sweet smile and leaving with a happy parting.  She was the ultimate “Nana,” “Mama,” “Mama Grace,” of whatever of the many names she was called by friends, her daughter, her sons, grandchildren, and nieces and nephews – all who deeply loved her - as did their younger friends.

Her home was a place of joy, fun, and excitement, and her presence and personality magnified all of it.

She left a void in many lives, but we will meet again!

Grace is survived by her husband, Michael Stanton Gibson; her sons, Michael Gibson and Billy Gibson, her daughter, Christi Gibson Britt; her mother, Mary Frances Monroe; her sisters, Mary Baer (Chris), Henrietta Edge (Mike), and Eva Ruth (David); her brothers, David Monroe (Mary) and Charles Monroe (Pam); her grandchildren, Trent and Olivia Gibson and Gibson and Gracen Britt. She was preceded in death by a son, Nicholas and her father, David Monroe.

Her memorial service will be 2 pm Sunday at Old Laurel Hill Presbyterian Church.  Visitation will follow in the church fellowship hall.

Memorial contributions are requested for Camp Monroe, 24501 Camp Monroe Rd. Laurel Hill, NC 28351.

McDougald Funeral Home and Crematorium is serving the family.
