Denis Grady Obituary

A funeral mass for Denis Michael Grady, 71, will be celebrated on Thursday, January 30, 2014, 11:00AM at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Bunnell. Denis passed away suddenly on January 25, 2014. He was born on December 15, 1942 in Johnstown, PA to the late John L. and Mary C. Grady (Cavanaugh). He retired as Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Novartis Pharmaceuticals, East Hanover, NJ in 1996. He and his wife, Donna, moved to Palm Coast in 2007 from Flemington, NJ. His memberships included St. Mary's Catholic Church, Grand Haven Golf Club and the Elk's Club of Palm Coast. He was a deeply religious man who whenever asked would happily sit vigil in the wee hours of the morning for Eucharist adoration on the First Fridays at Santa Maria del Mar Catholic Church. Denis was an avid golfer of over 60 years and a voracious reader with a special interest in politics and national and world events. Denis is survived by his loving wife of 25 years, Donna; son, Denis H. and his wife Danielle Grady of San Diego, CA; daughter, Erin E. and her husband John Doremus of Milford, NJ; brothers, John of Charleston, SC., Michael of North Canton, OH., Kevin of Johnstown, PA., seven grandchildren and many beloved nieces, nephews and cherished friends. He will be greatly missed by all those who knew and loved him. Donations in his memory may be made to St. Mary's Catholic Church. For online condolences go to: www.craigflaglerpalms.com. Arrangements are in the care and trust of Craig-Flagler Palms Funeral Home.

We are deeply saddened by the news of Denis' passing. He was a great cousin and a thoughtful, loving nephew to my parents. We didn't see each other often but when we did his smile lit up the room. Truly a class individual all the way around...You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

My sincere condolences to the family for the loss of your dear love one. The God of comfort promises to "without fail show you favor at the sound of your outcry; as soon as he hears it he will actually answer you" to strengthen and fortify you to endure your grieving process. (Isaiah 30:19)

I just wanted to reach out to the family and let them know how sorry I am. Mr. Grady was a very special person to me and to everyone who has known him. He was the voice of reason, someone who everyone admired and looked up to and just an amazing person. I feel privileged to have known and worked for him at Copper Hill Country Club. Praying for all of you. XO
