  4. George was such a large part of the Grainger family. I still remember the times when George was with us on our fishing trips to Lake Erie. He was always part of the fun without being the center of attention. Those most memorable days of my life and George will always be in them. Those are the kind of things that he will be remembered for – making people smile and bringing laughter in their lives. And while it’s going to be very difficult to think of this world without him, it is a happy thought knowing that wherever he is, he is only spreading happiness.

He was never too busy to help out. He left this earth way too soon. Please accept my condolences, as you remember and celebrate his life. He will certainly be missed at Grainger where he touched many people.

    God bless you, George!!
