Grace died in Wichita, Sedgwick County, Kansas. She was buried in Resthaven Cemetery and Mortuary. My mother continually had dreams that her mother wanted to be buried in Sterling next to her parents. Finally in 1980, my mother made the arrangements to have her moved. She was moved on the 3rd of October, 1980, from Resthaven to Sterling Cemetery. I asked my mother several months later if she had anymore dreams about her mother not being happy about where she was buried. She replied, “Not a one”.Grace was married first to William Adolph Schauner, who was born in Wichita, Kansas. They divorced in the 1950’s and much later, she married Richard E. Brame. He was much younger than her and I always felt he married her for money. My grandmother was a self-made woman.Family links:
