Anthony Grover Obituary
Tony was born August 15, 1958 to Jim and Mary Jane (Ahlbrecht) in Minneapolis. Together with his former wife, Carol (Calva), he raised four children: Crystal, Joe, Micki, and TJ.
Tony graduated summa cum laude from Northwestern University with a double major in Pastoral and Biblical Studies. As a pastor he served Zion Church, Big Lake and Everlasting Grace Church, Princeton.
