Loving husband, father, son, brother and friend, passed away Feb. 26, 2008. As husband to Roberta there could be no one who loved or cared more. Grant was a devoted father who took pride in being a parent, loved playing with Daniel and Jessica when they were small and helped them grow into wonderful adults. He was close to his parents, Teri and Vic, and sister, Faye, and loved them dearly. Grant was passionate about his work in health care, believing that people can make the difference. He treated all he met with graciousness and courtesy. A great speaker and thinker he was never happier than working on his whiteboard, developing some new idea or scheme. We will all miss the spark he gave our lives.
