Muriel and Family,
I was very sorry to hear of Grants passing. Although I had not seen Grant since his retirement at PM, I enjoyed working with him for many years. I always enjoyed talking to him about Scotland since he and my grandfather where both born there. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time.

Muriel, Karen, Alistar and Andrew, your husband and dad was a great man and will be missed by all the neighbers. We will always remember Grant shuffling the leaves in the fall, riding in the little red convertable, taking his long walks as Max would join him now and then, but most of all had a story to tell with a big smile on his face. We have many memories of Grant that will live on forever. God bless you all. Your next door neigbors - Robert, Mary, Bailee, Nicholas and Max
