Grant shot for the Shooting Federation of Canada, where he travelled abroad.

In his earlier years he enjoyed sailing up and down the coast. His favorite yearly vacation was Seven Half Diamond Ranch, where he rode horseback for hours through the scenic trails. Compassionate man who cared for all creatures great and small. His empathy was boundless towards those in need.

Special thanks to all the staff at Glacier View Lodge.

He will forever be in our hearts.
