Grace Gould

Age 80 of Portage, formerly of Clearfield County, PA passed away Saturday, October 25, 2025. Grace was born at home in Flinton, PA, on November 21, 1944, the daughter of Melvin and Margaret (Sneath) Monahan. Grace had a laugh that will never be forgotten. Many memories have been made with family members playing cards, Yahtzee, Bingo and other fun games. Her siblings remember them not laughing but cackling together over anything funny. She loved reading her Bible. Grace loved picking wild strawberries. She will be remembered as a hard worker. Over the years, she worked as a coal miner, in an auto body shop, waitress, factory worker, and many other jobs. Her best job though was as the mother to her children. Grace is survived by her children, Jim Warfield, Lisa (Paul) Kephart, Connie Branch; grandchildren, Michael (Shannon Utz) Kephart, Jamie (Brandt) Hipple, Andrew Branch, Conner Branch; great-grandchildren, Jordan, Brandt, Sophie, Liam, Logan; brother, Robert (Nancy) Monahan; sisters, Gloria (Ronnie) Rainey, Helen Wilkinson; several nieces and nephews; and many, many friends.
