A construction worker by trade and a gardener at heart he loved the outdoors, planting trees and flowers everywhere he could. Dirt bikes were one of his favorite activities. The combination of mud, dirt and speed was exhilarating for him, as was walking and running everywhere he went. Grant was known for his bright smile, joyful spirit, giving heart and a deep love of family. Through good times and bad his devotion to his wife Kelly never wavered. But the joy of his life was his daughter, Emily. The mention of her name filled him with glowing pride. Bound by love,forgiveness and acceptance, Grant's family and friends will miss himforever.
