Grace Christine McNeill's Obituary
We are very saddened by the passing of Grace Christine McNeill suddenly and unexpectedly on Tuesday, June 28, 2022. She was a generous person who all her life supported multiple community service organizations, such as St. Jude, Memphis Union Mission, The Alzheimer’s Association and others. She was devoted to her church and continued to support their mission even after she was unable to attend.
She was preceded in death by her husband Jerome McNeill, son Jerry McNeill and her daughter, Robyn Smalley. Grace leaves behind her daughter, Catherine Pruitt, son in law Charles Pruitt; daughter in law Amy McNeill and her grandchildren and step grandchildren, Amber Smalley, Cait Wallace, Teagan Griffith, William McNeill, Brittany Kuykendall and Reese, Connor, Jarred and Tyler Pruitt. She was the proud great grandmother to Derrick, Selena, Isabelle, Cassidy and Joseph Smalley; Zayne McNeill and Bailey Kuykendall.
She was a huge Grizzlies and Tigers fan and would joke that she was the oldest fan in Memphis of “her” teams.
Grace’s career spanned over 60 years, primarily in property management and accounting.
She will be sorely missed, but we are certain that she is now content in the arms of her Lord.
