Grace Rosa Belle was born on June 22, 1936, to Kaiser L. and Sara (Wallace) Hatch in Kingman, Arizona. Her family moved to Cherokee, Oklahoma, in January of 1942 where they made their home. Grace graduated from Cherokee High School and then pursued a career in nursing. With her education and experience, she spent all her working life helping residents in the nursing home have a fulfilled life. She retired from the housekeeping department at Cherokee Manor in 2001.
She married and divorced twice before she met the man whom she would love for the rest of her life, Carroll Brining. They wed on November 24, 1978. From there, Walking Tall and Morning Dove became their alter egos and everywhere they went they had lots of friends and family in CB land. Grace and Carroll went camping and fishing several times a year until he died in 1996. She loved to quilt, do puzzles, play chess and other games on her Kindle. Grace enjoyed cake decorating and made several of her children's wedding cakes. She collected salt/pepper shakers and anything Garfield the Cat. Her family was her life.
She was preceded in death by Carroll, her parents, an infant son, (Robert Dean), and a great grandson, (Caleb); three brothers, (Chester, Kenneth, John), one sister, (Jeanette), two sister-in-laws, (Marilyn and Becky) and one brother-in-law, (Raymond).
