Obituary of Grace M. Scates Pastor
Please share a memory of Grace to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Grace M. Scates Pastor (nee Virgilio), 91, of Egg Harbor Township passed away peacefully at home on Wednesday, November 3, 2021. Born in Hammonton she lived most of her life there before moving to Vineland and then Egg Harbor Township nine years ago. Grace had worked as a secretary for the State of New Jersey. She enjoyed playing bingo, going to the beach, singing and playing music. She also enjoyed collecting dolls, roosters, angels and bells. Grace always made sure everyone left her house well-fed. Her homemade cavatelli with gravy and salad could never be matched. Above all, Grace loved spending time with her family. She often enjoyed family games nights playing cards or dominoes or watching her favorite sports teams with her children and grandchildren.
She was predeceased by her husband, Peter Pastor. She is survived by three children, Elliott R. Scates Sr. (Vickie), Deborah Ann Werth (Roger), and Linda Esau, her grandchildren, Ryan Rice (Diona), Lamar D. Rice (Shanna), Elliott R. Scates Jr (Allie), and five great grandchildren, Alyssa, Rayne, Myah, Major and Trusten.
