Grace Inez Page Mandella, of Independence, Louisiana, passed away on Friday, October 15, 2021, at the age of 95. She was born on December 17, 1925, in McComb, Mississippi, the daughter of the late Edward Ward Page and Ada Evie McCaskell Page. Inez was a resident of Independence for over 70 years and was a licensed florist working out of her home for many years. She loved animals, especially cats and dogs, and supported the Tangi Humane Society as much as she could. Inez loved going dancing, she was always very neatly and stylishly dressed, and possessed an inspiring level of poise and confidence. She loved and doted on her husband and son, adored her granddaughters and great grandchildren, and was especially proud that both of her granddaughters were teachers. Inez was one of a kind and she is missed dearly.
Inez is survived by her son, Vick Mandella, Jr. (Karen); granddaughters, Melissa Cavallero (Scott) and Krista Harris (Brent); great grandchildren, Bailey Cavallero, Max Harris, and Kate Harris; and numerous nieces and nephews.
In addition to her parents, Inez was preceded in death by her husband, Vick Mandella, Sr.
