Mrs. Wells was born January 11, 1930, in Vernon, AL to the late Myrt Allen and Fannie Myrtle Rector Allen.  She attended Border Springs Baptist Church.  Mrs. Wells worked as an Assembly Line Worker for many years.  While living in Detriot, Grace became a huge Detroit Tiger fan.  She would often take her kids to a Sunday doubleheader game.  She also was a big Alabama football fan, attending many games with her brother.  Her kids called Grace "Lucky" as she always seem to win at the slots.  She would play poker with her kids once achieving a Royal Flush.  Grace also did cross-stitch, quilting, and playing word search.  All these things were good but Grace's true love was her family, from the kids to the great-great-grand kids.  She enjoyed them from holding them as babies through school and young adulthood.
