I am often asked how I can help someone who isn’t a business owner, or if For Grace offers smaller-packaged services.

You may just need someone outside of your family to write up and create your Great Aunt Mary’s obituary. Maybe your church wants to bring it’s bulletin into the 2010’s. Maybe you need help coordinating an event you thought up and are now tired of – before it starts. Let us help you!
