Meet Volunteer: Grace Queen
The Center for Active Living is dedicated to fostering a welcoming and vibrant environment for all its members, and we are thankful for our amazing volunteer team for making that happen each day. In this edition, we’d like you to meet one of our newest volunteers at Margie’s Café, Grace Queen. Grace started volunteering in December and quickly became known for her warm, caring and vibrant personality.
Originally from a small mountain town in North Carolina, Grace said she was looking for an opportunity to connect more deeply with her home community of West Seattle, where she has lived for six of the past 10 years.
A cool fact is that Grace is a published author, and her book, Accomplishments & Accomplices, was released last August. This historical comedy, set in 1820s England, follows two meddling matrons as they attempt to play matchmaker with their unsuspecting new neighbors. Grace cites the writings of Jane Austen and P.G. Wodehouse as part of her inspiration for the book. (Look for it in paperback, Kindle and audiobook editions!)
If you visit The Center on a Monday around lunchtime, be sure to stop by Margie’s Café to meet Grace where you will be greeted with her warm smile.
