Information
Grace was the youngest of the three Sheffield children. Grace was seeing a therapist when Fran Fine came to work for the family which ultimately was advised by C.C. who apparently 'had been going for twenty years'. Grace and Fran became very close. Grace was so devoted to Fran that she ran away to Flushing on Fran's day off, after C.C. upset the Sheffield children (especially Grace) by saying that Fran only spent time with them because she was paid to. However this episode is when first met Fran's Mother, Sylvia Fine. During her adventures in Flushing, she attended her first Jewish wedding.
Grace was called "Gracie" by Fran. Grace would often accompany Fran shopping, and aided Fran in her schemes. Grace eventually adopted some of Fran's Jewish slang and dressing habits.
She became an older sister to her twin half-siblings, Jonah Samuel and Eve Catherine.
Grace accompanied her family to Los Angeles, when her father accepted an offer to produce a T.V. show there.
