Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear. Dick was a wonderful person who I enjoyed working with while he was with AHEC. I have only fond memories of my interactions with him.

Dick Grant was the epitome of what I would call a class act. I met him in 1992 when I first interviewed for a position to work with him in AHEC. He had a warm heart, an amazing sense of humor and was so well-liked by all who knew him. My prayers go out to all his family - I know he will be missed.

I am very saddened by Dick's passing. What a wonderful human, who contributed so much to so many. My prayers are for all who loved him !


What a great person. Dick was a neighbor when I was growing up. He, and his brother Bob, were inspirations to me. Dick treated everyone with respect and dignity. I hope he realized how much people like me appreciated his warm and accepting nature. I think of Dick and his wonderful family often. Thank you, Dick, for taking the time to make a little kid feel special.

We were sorry to hear about Dick's death. Remember all the good time's we all had at Diamond Lake with everyone. My dad Vac and him are sitting around a lake up there having a grand old time sitting by a campfire or out on the lake.

I've known Dick since 1951, when I met him as a classmate at Beaverton High School. Even back then he stood out among the others. He always was a classy gentleman, and will be missed very much by his family, friends and acquaintances. My sincere condolences to the Grant family.

Always greeted with a huge smile and a big bear hug, he will be greatly missed.

It will be hard to face the first year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can help you through. I only knew Dick a short while when I was a teenager through his daughter Carrie. I always thought how lucky she was to have such a wonderful father. My thoughts are with all of you.

Dick was such a kind and genuine human being. He had a great sense of humor and a way of making people feel happy. He was a very "special classmate" from elementary school through high school. He will be missed at our get-togethers.
