Grant had an exceptional work ethic. He recently celebrated 60 years of service with International Union of Operating Engineers Local 793. His work over the years as a crane operator took him across Canada. He loved fishing, hunting and curling. He was the biggest fan of his grandsons, he attended all their hockey and football games. Grant was an Elks member for many years. Both Grant and Gladys enjoyed travelling together. The European River Cruise and spending time travelling from Newfoundland to Alaska in their trailer, are just a few of the highlights of their adventures.
