Grace Garvin

Grace Fairchild Garvin, resident of Pocatello, Idaho, passed away peacefully on May 22, 2023, at the age of 94. Born on March 5, 1929, in Pocatello, Grace was the cherished daughter of her late parents. She joins them now, as well as all her siblings.

Grace graduated from Pocatello High School in 1945, and afterward she embarked on a life filled with traveling, which she enjoyed very much. Grace was very dedicated to her family. She loved all of the time spent with them and never regretted a second of it. She loved family get-togethers where family would enjoy games and playing cards and conversing amongst each other.

One of Grace’s enduring passions was her longtime membership at the Juniper Hills Country Club, where she was a cherished longtime member. Grace found immense joy in spending time at the club, cultivating friendships, and all of the joy it brought her.

Beyond her involvement at the country club, Grace found solace and delight in various hobbies. Animals held a special place in her heart, and she found great fulfillment in their companionship. She loved all of her many cats and dogs.

Grace’s love for gardening allowed her to create beautiful and vibrant spaces that brought joy to her and all who witnessed her green thumb. Additionally, she was a talented oil painter, skillfully capturing the beauty of the world around her. Grace also enjoyed golfing, honing her skills on the course and finding camaraderie among her fellow golfers.

Grace Fairchild Garvin will forever be remembered for her zest for life, her unwavering dedication to her passions, and her warm and generous spirit. She leaves behind a legacy of love and inspiration that will continue to touch the lives of those who were fortunate enough to know her.

Grace is survived by her many nieces and nephews and will be missed greatly.

Our family would like to express our thanks for their loving care of Grace at Caring Hearts and Heritage Hospice.

As Grace would say, she is “Gonna Dance the Jig.”
