I worked with Kendall at the Bullitt County YMCA years ago. I remember him being young, strong, and vital. And I remember that he loved his work with youth sports. I now attend church with Kendall's cousin, David Grant. I found out about Kendall's condition recently through David. My heart goes out to you, his family, who are left behind to grieve his memory. May the Lord give you strength to endure and go forward, one day at a time.

To the Grant family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Kendall's time here was way to short. I know your family is finding comfort in knowing he is walking with Jesus now, pain free. It was very comforting having your family across
the hall at Hosparus as Kendall and my father were leaving us. Jan Haskins,

Kendall coached my girls many years ago @ the YMCA. He was a tender, kind spirit. Blessings of Peace Blanket those he has left behind on Mother Earth. May their sorrow be lifted with the knowledge of knowing his life on Mother Earth touched many, for he was a Good man, and his life with Creator God has just begun.
