Recently I was informed of Grant's passing. My deepest sympathy to the family. I remember Grant as a baby when his sister and I used to babysit him when his mom went to work. Last time I saw you was when you came to vote at the federal election polling station. May you rest in peace. - Posted by: Sylvia H (Friend) on: Aug 26, 2014

I met Grant quite a few years ago when I was an apprentice at Westwood Mechanical, at that time Grant was my Journeyman I worked under. I had spent my first year working with Grant helping to build the New Selkirk Mental hospital in Selkirk Man. Grant was a mentor to me and had patience for my mistakes when others didn't. I learned a lot from Grant throughout the year and we became friends over that period. Grant one day gave me the nickname Spongebob square pants and any time I was no where to be found while at work Grant would go around asking everyone has anyone seen Spongee! Lol! It was Grant's way of saying he liked the cut of your jib!Y ou will be missed, rest in peace bud! - Posted by: Jason Adamson () on: Mar 20, 2013

We knew each other in St. Johns High, we both became plumbers along with a mutual friend of ours who was the reason we met and hung out for while there. We shared in some memories although brief and so long ago considering our age now. My heart goes out to his kids..... You will be missed by many "Bud". - Posted by: Ed Krosta (Friend) on: Mar 20, 2013
