Grant was a very kind gentleman to me when I was a boy. I am Grant's cousin and I stayed with him and his family when I was a boy coming from London, England. I was lucky enough to actually go with him on assignment to a forest fire, I will never forget that spectacular trip and especially the kindness that he and his family showed me. He was a lovely, kind man and I would dearly love to catch up with my cousin's Shelby and co. I hope they are all keeping well.

My father in Seattle sent me a Seattle P.I. photo of the Olympics with downtown in the foreground when I was in school in Bellingham. He knew I loved those mountains. I have saved the pic all these years and now wish to do a painting based on this photo for my niece's wedding present. Thought I should look for the photographer and ask permission, just to be polite. This obit came up. He looks like quite a character!

I did not know Mr. Haller, but I received a photograph of my father in 1972 prior to his Olympic win with Mr. Haller's name stamped on the back. The photograph is beautiful and brings tears to my eyes. I wanted to reach out to Mr. Haller and thank him personally. I have seen many professional photos of my father but, this is the 2nd one I've seen that makes me emotional. What a truly talented artist!

My condolences to Mr. Haller's family and friends

Grant was a mentor to me. I became a better photographer with his help. He was a kind and giving person. I will miss him.

Warm Regards,

He was the genuine article. Abundant talent, the eye of an artist and the heart of an open hearth plus always a wink of whimsy. It was a privilege to work with Grant. Susan Paynter

So long Grant. I'll imagine you now traveling somewhere else in one of those interstellar space vehicles you used to like to talk about. Sorry you had to leave too soon
