Obituary for Grace M Monaghan (Barsamian)

Grace Margaret (Barsamian) Monaghan received her wings on April 15, 2023 surrounded by love. Raised in Andover, MA, she was the daughter of Amosia "Mike" and Margaret Barsamian. After settling in Salisbury to raise her family, she recently retired after working for more than 30 years for Attorneys Alex Nossiff and John Giampa, whom she considered family. Always ready for an adventure with her "girls", a trip to the casino or a card game, Grace lived every minute to the fullest. Known by most as Amazing Grace, Princess Grace or Gracie, she was most affectionately known as Ma. Ma had the unique ability to make everyone feel like they had just met their best friend. She loved her family and friends fiercely and was one of the kindest people around. She will be forever missed by those she is survived by. Ma is survived by her sons Kevin (Donna), Shawn, Brian (Becky), and Barry. Her daughters Kerry and Shane (Shawn), 17 grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, several nieces, nephews, cousins and countless others who just adored Amazing Grace. Grace was predeceased by her parents, her husband Frank who she shared 47 years of marriage with, her sisters Sally and Elizabeth and her daughter-in-law Gini Ann. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to The Feline Rescue, St. Judes, The Veterans Association, or any charity of your choosing. Honor Grace today by saying "hello" to a stranger, you never know the effect it may have on someones day. Cremation was done by Purdy Funeral Service Dover, NH. There will be a celebration of life on May 20, 2023 starting at 1:00pm at her home in Salisbury, all that loved Grace are welcome.
