Ellen Rebecca Grimes “Neicey” was born on September 12, 1954 in Washington, D.C. to the late James R. Grimes and late Josephine L. Grimes-Staton. In 1963 her family moved to Philadelphia, PA where they lived for 2 years. In 1965, her family relocated to Maryland where Neicey attended Montgomery County Public Schools.
As a young adult, she worked for the US Postal Service. Her next place of employment was as a bus driver for MCPS. Following that she worked as a childcare provider for many years where she provided outstanding care for many, many children. After devoting many years to taking care of children, Neicey changed from being a childcare provider and became employed as a professional house cleaner. She worked in this field until she was unable to do so due to health reasons.
During her adult years, she had a long-term relationship with Mike Plummer and they had 2 kids together Latoya Denise Grimes and Mary Ellen Grimes.
Neicey was well-known and a very pleasant person. She made friends easily and would be a true friend forever.
