She was united in marriage to Harold C. Woelber on October 26, 1957. Harold and Grace made their home on the Woelber family farm just outside of George, IA. Grace worked as a nurse while growing her family until it was time to become a stay at home farm wife full time.
Grace lived a full life. You could find her baking with her grandchildren, putting puzzles together with Harold, sewing blankets or towels, gardening, or sipping a hot cup of coffee. Grace enjoyed life on the farm; hearing the chatter of her kids, the laughter of her grandchildren, or the sounds of the animals they raised together.
Grace is survived by her children Brian (Char) Woelber of Sheldon, IA, Elaine (Doug) Cherry of Larchwood, IA, Loren Woelber of George, IA, Linda Woelber (Ed Hoekstra) of Tucson, AZ, Sharon Stevenson of Sheldon, IA, Bruce Woelber of George, IA and Becky DeYoung of Trip, SD; She is also survived by twelve grandchildren; and six great grandchildren.
She is preceded in death by her parents, her husband Harold, and an infant daughter.
