Grant Van Vliet, 2015-12-21

George and Linda Van Viet dit :

Our condolences
I want to say to all of Grant’s family how sorry Linda and I are to hear the sad news of his passing. Having grown up in Lacolle, I have many great memories of Grant. I remember him as always being in a good mood and he usually had a kind word or a good joke to tell me whenever we met. As a fifteen year old I remember showing up on Grant’s doorstep one day (completely unannounced) and asking him if he could help me put the leather covering on a speaker cabinet I had built. In his usual friendly manner he smiled and then asked me to leave everything with him and he’d see what he could do. A couple of days later he dropped off the cabinet at our house and it was covered so well it looked like it came directly from the factory. This is just one example of Grant’s caring manner, not to mention his talent in building things. We go to Lacolle every summer and I usually stop by Burtonville cemetery to pay my respects to our many ancestors. It seems every time I went there, Grant was also there - working hard to make sure the grounds were looking great. I will certainly miss seeing him next summer. Again, our sincere condolences to Sylvia, Karen, Keith, Kevin and Kim. Cousin George Van Vliet
