She married Ron Graskey in Solon Springs at St. Pious X Catholic Church in 1992. She worked for the Douglas County Forestry Department until her retirement in 2008. She was a member of St. Pious and initiated the free clothing distribution, and Thursday night softball at the church. She also played softball for Prevost’s Women’s Softball Team. She enjoyed crafting with the ladies, riding in a golf cart to visit close friends, and never missed a rummage sale.

Dear Ron, Meghan and Michael, Our deepest condolences, I have missed lunch with Mick since she retired and not seeing her since I retired. I will always remember her friendship and great sense of humor and her laugh. She was a wonderful person and I'm glad to share our friendship. Love and prayers, Barb & Ron DeFore, Lake Havasu, AZ
