Grace Marie
Polito
Dec 30, 1932 — Apr 6, 2023
Grace Polito 12/30/32 - 4/6/23
Grace was born to Thomas and Grace Blair in Newton Square, Pennsylvania where she attended Marple Newton High School and graduated in 1950.
As a young lady, she participated in the Tri-County Drum and Bugle Corp and played Lacrosse. After high school, Grace was crowned Rodeo Queen for her community.
Grace married the "love of her life," Joe Polito, in 1953 and they had 3 children, Joey, Terri Polito Jordan, and Jim Polito (wife, Pat Mozden).
Being a people person, Grace joined the Women's Highway One Association (late 60's) and was a school Red Cross Nurse. While living in Port Orange, Grace and family were founding members of the original Epiphany Catholic Church. After moving to Colony in the Wood, Grace and Joe took full advantage of the many social activities offered and added many more friends to their already lengthy list. In Addition, they started a weekly lunch group called the Knife & Fork Club.
Things Grace would like to be remembered for: her old school values, being a patient person, a good sense of humor, kindness to others, and her unconditional love for her family. She especially wishes for her children to have long, healthy and happy lives.
