    Jacky, so sorry to hear of Grant’s passing.
    Tough for the community to lose yet another long-time neighbour.
    Grant always seemed cheerful when we visited and we are grateful for his support and advice for Christina.
    There were many good-natured and funny stories about Grant as told by Jerry during our many years working together.

    To be able to get direction and assistance in Peel’s Land titles Office from a familiar face was so helpful. Grant was always so knowledgeful of the systems and so willing to explain the most efficient way to use them.
    With my condolences to you, his Family. May Grant rest in peace, knowing he made a significant contribution locally and beyond.

    My sincere condolences to Grant’s family. I will always remember Grant from the Land Registry days as the coolest and calmest manager. I can see him smoking his pipe at the side entrance , deep in thought.
    He always showed up for everyone in every circumstance. He was so kind and generous. Grant brought so much laughter with his witty humour. It was truly a delight working with him.
    Rest in peace

    I had the pleasure of working with Grant for several years at the Land Registry Office and as previously noted nothing never seemed to upset Grant nor did he ever get emotional, always even keel with Grant….on a lighter note a few of us piled into his Lincoln and headed to a Blue Jay game , how we ever made it with all that pipe smoke fogging up the windows I’ll never know. Rest in peace Grant.
