Grace Davis Pine (née McKinnon) was born on 12 January 1910. She attended the University of Saskatchewan, earning a B.Sc. in 1930 and an ME in 1931. Although she had intended to pursue her medical degree, the Depression cut short those hopes. Grace worked at the Saskatoon Sanitarium laboratory until 1973. She may be best remembered, however, for her work with Save the Children. She founded its Saskatoon chapter in 1967, and served in various capacities at both the regional and national level. In addition, Grace worked for peace organizations, environmental groups, and cultural associations including the Saskatoon Symphony, Mendel Art Gallery, and Western Development Museum. For her tireless and effective work as a volunteer, Grace was awarded the Order of Canada in 1997. She died on 22 June 2002. [Source: Encyclopaedia of Saskatchewan].
