It is with great sadness to announce that Grace Marie Rogacz (Kearns) of Huntingdon Valley, PA passed away on November 16, 2025 at the age of 86. Born September 20, 1939 to William and Grace Kearns in Philadelphia.
Grace was preceded in death by her husband George Rogacz, daughters Elizabeth Foley (Christopher) and Kristine Taylor (Brooks), and sister Ginger Knapp. She is survived by her sister Pat Witoshkin (Tony), grandchildren Christopher Foley (Chelsea), Caitlin Kearns Foley, Cassidy Grace Foley, and Shane George Taylor, great-grandson Declan Foley, and many beloved nieces and nephews.
Grace, also known as "GG", was surrounded by many loving family and friends throughout her life. In Grace's words, her grandchildren were the "Lights of her Life." She was always ready and excited for outings and adventures with them whenever she could. Grace was incredibly proud of each of her grandchildren, and would use any opportunity she could to share stories about them!
Though she had several work-related positions in her life, one of her most cherished was being an administrator in the Bursar's office at Penn State (Abington Campus). While there, she worked closely with students and faculty providing guidance and a friendly face each day and gained many friends through the years.
Grace will be missed by many. She lived a long and fulfilling life, and made sure to never give up when life got hard. Grace has transitioned to heaven and will now join her family while she is smiling down upon us.
Internment will be private.
