Kimi Elizabeth Foco Grisiaffi, age 65, born October 3, 1957, passed away Friday, February 3, 2023, at her residence.  A native and lifelong resident of Jeanerette, Mrs. Grisiaffi made a career in business.  She was a graduate of Jeanerette Senior High School and earned a degree from Tech Area Vocational College in Business.  After school, she married the love of her life and together they managed the family’s Italian grocery store.  Grisiaffi’s Grocery was a treasured place on Main Street where any day you would find Kimi and Anthony there to greet you with friendly smiles.  She was also successful at other businesses which included a balloon shop, a plant nursery, and food prep with the best chili in town.

Her hobbies included cooking, gardening, bird watching in her backyard, horse racing, and visiting with family and friends.  She was very proud of her sisters, brother, nieces, nephews and she was especially proud of her son.  She was a great historian of earlier years.  Guided by her faith, her core belief was “I can do all things through Christ” – Philippians 4:13.  She will be remembered as an extremely giving person and part of a prayer chain for anyone in need.  She will be sadly missed by all whose lives she touched.
