She retired from Southern Bell Telephone Company in Florence but continued to work tirelessly at various jobs, among them switchboard operator for Florence General Hospital.

She is survived by her sisters, Barbara (Bob) Wilkinson, Beth (Phil) Farmer, and Cecelia Taylor and numerous nieces and nephews.  Grace resided in Florence for most of her life and since August 2023 lived at the Bethea Retirement Community in Darlington.  She suffered with memory issues in recent years.

She was the devoted mother of two children, a son Joseph Bradford Rogers and a daughter Katrina Hart Rogers.  She was preceded in death by parents, Joe and Josie Hill, her children, Brad and Trina Rogers, her sisters, Joan Hill and Wanda Hamblen, and brothers-in-law, Tom Taylor and Larry Hamblen.
