Grace Naomi Mumaw, 84, a resident of Harrisonburg, VA passed away on July 8, 2015 at Crestwood at the Virginia Mennonite Retirement Community.
Miss Mumaw was born on December 22, 1930 in Harrisonburg, Virginia and was the daughter of the late John Rudy and Esther Forry (Mosemann) Mumaw. She graduated from RMH School of Nursing and Eastern Mennonite College (now EMU). For 50 years, she loved caring for patients, student nurses and staff in administrative duties.

Grace was a member of Shenandoah Valley Choral Society for many years and often sang with her sisters. Crocheting was her hobby during ?working? days and in retirement she enjoyed quilting items for the Mennonite Central Committee Sale. Time with friends and family was often spent around a table game or jigsaw puzzles. She was a member of Lindale Mennonite Church.
