Yesterday

I was a neighbor of the Marr family as a kid. I would hang out with Grant's sisters Alison and Carla. When I think of Grant, I think about how much fun he had with his dog, Duke. They were always together. Sorry for your loss.

I am a retired Police Sergeant from Richland. Grant served as a Reserve Police Officer for several years. He was highly trusted and respected for his professional approach to law enforcement. We enjoyed his service to others, especially the expert testimony he was able to give on a couple important cases that involved his field. Rest is peace my friend.
