Condolence: Thinking of you and your family as the anniversary of Grant's passing approaches.

Condolence: Uncle Grant, it is so hard to believe that your gone. You have always been the big burly able to do anything man that always kept that connection for us to the Smith side of our family. We were always amazed by your hunting,fishing,traveling that you did despite your disability. We will be forever grateful for the time that you and mom spent together taking care of each other in your later years. You will be especially missed around the holidays when you would show up with your bag of goodies (breads,jellies,pickles) that we enjoyed all year. I also want to thank you personally for your lessons in canning, and our many lunch dates at Maudes. You will forever be in our hearts,may you rest in peace.

Condolence: I will always have fond memories of Grant on our fishing trip on Lake Ontario and hunting at our southern zone lease in Montgomery county. My condolences.

Condolence: Dad

I am heart broken we will not be able to hunt/fish together for a long time. I know you are in a better place surrounded by loving family and friends. We who are still here will miss your greatly every day. I must learn to forge on with a piece of my heart missing. That's okay, your example and courage to combat your handicap gave us the inspiration to handle anything life can/will throw our way and overcome.

Your legacy is vast and far reaching. A small farm in upstate NY a carpenter was born, but who could have know the impact you would make. Air Force veteran, father, grand father, mentor, fishing/hunting sportsman. Your mark is what you leave behind on your family and friends...I am now missing my best friend, but know I gained a guardian angel who has my back.

As we gather for your last retreat, please watch from above as your family and friends come together to celebrate your life and the amazing impact you had on all our lives. Know we your family will love you now and forever...until we meet again on the other side, please keep a place by the hunting lodge fire for me.
Love
CGS-IV
