WEBSTER - It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Grace M. LeBlanc, 77, of Webster, Massachusetts. Grace was a woman whose presence could brighten any room, always carrying a warm smile and an unwavering spirit, even in the face of life’s greatest challenges.
She was a devoted mother, grandmother, and loving partner. She leaves behind her daughter, Melissa LeBlanc, and her three cherished grandchildren, Isabell, Abigail, and Kenny; her son, Tommy LeBlanc; and her significant other, Robert Kirsch, with whom she shared a deep and unwavering love. She also held a special place in her heart for Robert’s daughters, Jaime Sens and her husband, Ryan Sens, and Ashley Quates and her husband, Jeffrey Quates, along with their children, Lexi, Sadie, Owen, Harper, Hayley, Cole, and Hayden, whom she cared for deeply and loved as if they were her own.
Grace’s happy place was out on the lake, with the sun on her face and the wind in her hair, cruising along with family, friends, Bob, and her beloved dog, Theodore (“Teddy”), who was her cherished baby. She loved entertaining, sharing laughter and stories by the water, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. Whether hosting gatherings or simply enjoying the peacefulness of the lake, Grace found joy in every moment spent with those she loved.
Her resilience was unmatched. Even after her cancer diagnosis, she never allowed it to dim her light or her spirit. She continued to spread love and laughter, touching the lives of all who knew her. Her strength, kindness, and boundless love will live on in the hearts of her family and friends.
A graveside service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, February 12, at Worcester B’nai B’rith Cemetery, 55 St. Johns Road, Worcester, MA 01603, to honor and celebrate Grace’s life. A reception will follow at The Torah Center, 2 Brookshire Rd, Worcester, MA 01609.

Grace will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Her legacy of love, laughter, and lakefront memories will live on forever.
