George Grigg Obituary

It's with a heavy heart we announce that Bruce Grigg passed peacefully on Sunday evening, February 5th at the age of 73. Survived by his wife, Cathiey Grigg, whom he married 49 years ago and two children, Garrett Grigg and Carly Robles. He was gifted with four grandchildren, Skylin, Seanna, Landen, and Sofia. Bruce was a patient husband, the best father, and beloved Papa. He served the SJPD for 34 years. Those who knew or worked with him knew him as a highly honored and deeply respected servant to his community. In 2007, Bruce retired and spent his days driving around and swimming with the grandkids, helping raise them into admirable successful adults. There will be no services held.

My dad was the best dad in the world. He taught me so many things. He was always so patient and kind. I was so blessed to have him for a dad. I will always remember his warm heart and helpful advice. I can count on one hand how many times he got mad at me. He was there to give me away to my husband John. I will forever miss him. I love you dad and know you´re watching over me.
Your loving daughter, Carly

As his son-in-law, Bruce was like a second father to me. Over the years, I was amazed at his patience, generosity, unwavering kindness and dedication to all his family. I am grateful to have known him for almost a quarter century. Our family's loss is profound. Bruce, may rest in peace.

Bruce, as he was known to many that he worked with at the SJPD, can best be described as one who was loyal, quiet, dependable, very smart, and never let anyone down. Bruce will certainly be missed. Rest In Peace, my friend.
