It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Grace Liggon, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend.

Born on February 8, 1950, in New York, Grace was the daughter of John and Margaret Liggon. She grew up in a loving household alongside her siblings, John Jr. and Sarah. From a young age, Grace exhibited a remarkable determination and a thirst for knowledge, which served her well throughout her life. Grace's passion for education led her to pursue a degree in English Literature from New York University. Always eager to expand her horizons, she continued her academic journey by obtaining a Master's degree in Education. Grace's commitment to learning was an inspiration to all who knew her. For over three decades, Grace dedicated herself to the field of education, working as a highly respected teacher and mentor in various New York City schools. Her dedication to her students went far beyond the classroom, as she constantly sought innovative ways to make a difference in their lives. Grace was known for her patience, empathy, and ability to instill confidence in those she taught. Outside of her professional life, Grace possessed a deep love for the arts. An avid reader, she could often be found in her favorite local bookstore, discussing literature with fellow enthusiasts. Grace's collection of books was as diverse as her interests, ranging from classic literature to contemporary poetry. Grace had a great appreciation for nature and loved spending time outdoors. She would often embark on hiking trips to scenic locations, immersing herself in the beauty of the world around her. These moments of tranquility brought her immense joy and provided a much-needed respite from her demanding career. In her free time, Grace also enjoyed volunteering at local shelters and community centers. Her caring nature and selflessness shone through in her tireless efforts to uplift and support those in need. Grace's generosity touched the lives of many and her impact on the community will be felt for years to come. Above all, Grace was a devoted mother and grandmother. Her children, Michael and Emily, were the light of her life, and she never missed an opportunity to share in their accomplishments and cheer them on. Grace's unwavering love, guidance, and support have been instrumental in shaping the individuals her children have become. Grace leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and perseverance. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all those whose lives she touched. May her spirit continue to guide and inspire us as we carry her memory in our hearts.
