Grant was an Army Veteran and a 37-year technician and engineer for General Electric. He was a strong family man and enjoyed doing things with and for his family, his friends and those not yet friends. There are many who remember the many years Grant and Maxine taught Sunday school or helped with youth group events. They always enjoyed staying active and helping others.

Grant enjoyed travel with his family and later as a couple in retirement. He loved music and playing his harmonica. He was a self-taught wood worker and thrived being in the outdoors. He and Maxine were avid Square Dancers for many years. Learn something new every day became a frequently heard comment.
