Our condolences to Sharon, Dale & Family. We were saddened to hear of Grant’s passing. Grant was one of my exceptional
students at Swanavon. I still use the gift daily in our kitchen which he gave me in 1976 (Ceramic frog scour pad holder). We had contact with Grant through the years as he was a good friend of our son (Derek). Hockey and curling was a big part of their lives in the early years.
To the Sheridan family, we are so truly saddened by the loss of Grant, your cherished son, husband, father, brother, friend and valued community member. Our prayers and love are with you all.
Our thoughts are very much with Cherie, Tanner and the extended Sheridan family – as we are in the southern US at this time, we are unable to attend the Celebration tomorrow.
Dear Cherie,Tanner and all the Family,
It is with extreme sadness to hear of Grant’s passing. Grant was one of the kindest, caring, personable, fair business partner
and friend that we have had the privilege to enter our lives. There are no words to express how Grant will be missed.
In sorrow, reflect on and cherish all the memories of all your special times spent together. Doug and I send our sincere condolences at this difficult time.
Sending love and strength,
Cheri & Doug Janzen
My most humble condolences to the Sheridan family.
My relationship with Grant was only “at the rink”.
He respected the game, the players and officials , I will miss his spirit.
My thoughts go out to you Cherie and Tanner on this day. Grant’s wisdom, knowledge and such practical advice are just a few qualities I truly admired. He made such an impact in so many lives- something I’m sure he would be quietly proud of.
Dale, Sharon & family,
Know that our thoughts & prayers are with you today & always. Love you!💕
Dear Cherie and Tanner. I knew Grant professionally through both Value Partners and Great-West Life. He was awesome. I cannot believe he is gone. The world is a sadder place without his smile and great attitude. Hold his memory dear in your hearts. What was magic in him lives on in part in you.
