Gary Grover Obituary
After high school, Gary continued his education, eventually graduating from the National College of Chiropractic in 1967. He met Sandy because he was taking classes with her brother, Sam. Gary and Sandy married on New Year's Eve of 1966 and went on to create a family. They worked together building successful Chiropractic Practices in Warsaw, Indiana, Prescott, & Phoenix, Arizona. Gary handled the Chiropractic, and Sandy handled Massage Therapy. Gary loved helping people, working right up until a few days before his passing. Gary and Sandy loved to travel and covered the globe, from California to Hawaii, to Cruises to Alaska and the Mediterranean, and much more.
Gary enjoyed sports and was particularly good at tennis, later becoming a golfer. Gary had many friendships that lasted decades. Whether it was golfing with his buddies of 25 years or keeping in touch with relatives, Gary was and is loved by many.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Virginia and John Grover.
Gary will be reunited in heaven with his wife of 59 years, Sandra Jane Grover.
They will celebrate their 60th Anniversary in enteral bliss in Heaven! Please remember them in your prayers this New Year's Eve!

I knew Gary's father and mother. I was a financial and estate planner for his parents. I also bought some llamas from them.
I send you my condolences. If Gary was anything like his parents, and I'm sure he was, what a true champion!
May God Grant you a protective healing.

We met Gary years ago in Prescott. He was a unique and dedicated healer. He introduced people I know to flow concepts that they wouldn't have otherwise. Later getting Dr Grover a gym membership to aid his own health journey was a joy and welcome small script flip. He was always a pleasant person to chat or connect with.
