Grant Bledsoe, 59, passed away peacefully on February 22, 2025, surrounded by his loving family and embraced by the arms of Jesus.
Born in Cocoa Beach, Florida, on April 12, 1965, to Willard and Edna Bledsoe, Grant grew up with a deep love for the outdoors and a passion for spending time in nature. A dedicated member of Green Pond Baptist Church, he served as a deacon, choir director, preacher, Sunday school teacher, music leader, singer, and guitarist. He poured his heart into every role, exemplifying faith and leadership.
Grant was more than just a man of the church; he was a loving husband, father, mentor, and coach. His love for his family and friends knew no bounds, and his genuine care and kindness touched all who knew him. Grant's faith in Jesus Christ was unwavering, and he lived a life full of devotion, knowing without a doubt that he would be reunited with his Savior in heaven.
He is survived by his high school sweetheart and wife of 39 years, Beth, with whom he shared an incredible example of a Christian marriage. He leaves behind three daughters-Ashley (John) Hodges, Amanda Bledsoe, and Alissa (Dillon) Bayless-as well as four cherished grandchildren: Weston, Henry, Kori, and McKenzi. He is also survived by his sister, Donna (Billy) Jordan, as well as many nieces and nephews.
