“Gran spent his last days surrounded by his loved ones, family, and close friends. His wife Christina was by his side the entire time and was alone with him when he passed.

“Granny is now in peace and not suffering anymore. He fought till the end with strength, beauty, and grace like no other, putting his family before himself till the final moments.

“We are all so honored to have known Granville, who embodies the expression “to know him is to love him.” Everyone who knew Granville knew the exemplary human kindness he possessed.
