Kreszenzia Grant Obituary

Kreszenzia 'Centa' Grant

Resident of San Jose

With family at her side, Kreszenzia "Centa" Grant (age 89) peacefully passed away on November 22, 2010. Centa was born on November 3, 1921 in Osterhofen, Germany. In 1956, she immigrated to San Jose, where she met and married Mitt Grant Jr. and gave birth to the couples only child Linda.

Centa is survived by Mitt, her husband of 52 years, daughter Linda and grandchildren Katie and Matt. Her fondest memories were of her time in Germany, traveling the world with Mitt, cooking for and feeding the ones she loved and the precious years spent with Linda, Katie and Matt.
