James Grimaud

I knew Jim as a teacher, coach, spiritual advisor and most importantly a friend. He was such a positive influence on the lives of so many during his years at St. Dominic in the 70's. We also spent a few weeks together in Europe as a group of American "ambassadors". I was a wild child and about 25 years ago he looked me up in OFallon. I think he just wanted to know that I turned out okay. Jim taught me that the good Lord would take care of those who led good, Christian, purpose driven lives...

Our prayers & love are with Sharon & the entire Grimaud Family. We will treasure our memories of Jim forever.

I remember Father Grimaud when he chaperoned our People to People tour to Europe in 1971. He was so kind, funny and laid-back. He helped our friend Susan when she had to return home due to her father passing away. He was a gentle soul and I am so sorry for your loss.
