He was born in Hammond and lived there his entire life. He attended Hammond Tech HS. Grant was a sports lover, as an avid Cubs, Bears and Notre Dame fan, he had an encyclopedic knowledge of the stats and history of those teams. He also enjoyed going fishing in Minnesota with his family. Though Grant was small in stature and a grouchy nature, he had a very big heart and bigger laugh. His siblings would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the management and staff at Forever Green for treating him like a part of their family for the many years he worked there.
