ASID honors Grace Howard, a member of the ASID Georgia chapter, who passed away Friday afternoon.

Grace dedicated nearly 20 years of her life to the ASID Georgia Chapter and was treasured by all members who knew her. “She touched everyone’s hearts with her smile, warmth and caring nature.  She made everyone that entered the ASID office feel welcomed and at home,” says close friend and  Georgia chapter communications director Fernanda Crawford, Allied ASID.

Grace’s funeral took place on March 18, 2013, and was attended by several hundred people, including ASID members and other in the design community. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in the name of Grace Jordan Howard to the Ovarian Cancer Institute.
