After completing high school at Windsor Park Collegiate, he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Winnipeg and then attended Law School at the University of Manitoba, graduating in 1971. For many years he enjoyed practising law in a family law firm.
Grant?s haven and solace for a number of years was his cottage at Lake of the Woods. There he enjoyed several hobbies, such as boating, fishing, swimming and golfing. Grant, accompanied by his beloved poodles, spent many hours taking his daughter and her friends tubing, knee boarding and water skiing. Grant also took pleasure in travelling with his family and friends, particularly enjoying visiting his sister in California.
A Celebration of Grant?s Life will be held on Wednesday, July 8, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. in the First Lutheran Church, 580 Victor Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba, with Pastor Don Engel, presider.
The family wishes to give a special thank you to his friends at the Boulton, especially Daphne Davidson for her love and support. They also wish to thank the staff at Riverview Health Centre, Palliative Care.
