Harold Grantland Obituary

Dad, I miss you so much! I wish we had more time to spend with each other! My heart broke to pieces even more when Mom went home to you in June! You gave me an amazing Mom when you married her. Thank you! Thank you for my beautiful Sisters and wonderful brother! I am so proud of all of them and their families!
Lately, every memory I had of you and Mom has overwhelmed me! I bought a refrigerator last year and your words came to me. On January 1st, 1979 you told me that I needed to be able to buy a refrigerator before I should go out on my own. Just like a teen I went ahead and got married in February of that year! I wish I had listened to you! That is one of the most beautiful moments I had with you because you gave me sound advice. There are many things you said to me that actually I believe helped me be who I am today. I did listen to a lot of your wisdom. You and Mom were very wise!
Anyway, I was thinking of you and Mom! I miss you both! I love you very much! I will see you when my chores here on earth are done. Thank you for leaving me with such amazing siblings. They are all so special to me! XOXO
Love always and forever,
Your daughter, Judy

Dad it´s been 20 years since I last saw you. I miss you everyday. I wish I could have seen how happy you were when mom came to be with you. I now have two angels looking over me every day. Thank you always watching over me and my family. Please continue to help us make the best decisions and continue to make you proud. Till we meet again I love you more then words can say. Always and forever Laura

I love you and miss you so much dad

Most of the time you say "Happy Anniversary", this was undoubtly not a happy anniversary. We miss you so much!!!! It's just not the same without you, cracking your jokes, loving your grandkids, and aggravating mom. We will never forget you. I was touched by the tears from heaven as we planted a reminder of you. It will grow, as our love for you will grow. We will all be able to watch it grow up towards heaven by you. I love you and miss you, wish you were here. But at last you have found peace. Love you dad, forever.

Laura

IT'S BEEN A ROUGH YEAR LIVING WITHOUT SEEING/TALKING TO YOU. WE ALL KNOW YOU WERE WATCHING OVER US AS WE PLANTED YOUR TREE IN THE FRONT YARD LAST NIGHT TO MARK YOUR DAY, WE FELT YOUR TEARS FALL FROM THE SKY SHOWING THAT YOU MISSED US AS WELL, WE LOVE YOU AND WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE JOY AND LOVE YOU TAUGHT US. WE MISS YOU LOVE TAMMI & TIM & CHLOE AND FLUFFY.

Dad: I miss you so much, wish you were here to shed all your wonderful words of wisdom. Kids really miss you. You will be in our hearts and minds forever. I love you more than anything. Love always Laura...

Uncle Harold, you are Mama's only, and baby, brother. Mama loved you so very much. She seemed to have a very close spot in her heart for you. I suppose this came from your being the last two children at home. Please tell her hello for me. I miss her so very much.



My condolences and heartfelt empathy to Aunt Claudie, Laura, Tammi, Keith, spouses, grandkids and friends. We have all truly lost a wonderful person from our lives.



I know that we may not have seen each other much due to the distance between homes, but this does not diminish the love that is felt for you, or your famly, by those of us who love and miss you here in the South.



Until we meet again and the circle regathered, know that we all love and miss you so very much.



Your Niece,

Phyllis J. K. Owens

Daughter of Glenda Sue GRANTLAND Owens McCutcheon

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD, just thinking about you today & everyday, I miss you very much. You were more than a father and a friend you were someone who taught me right from wrong and believed in everything I wanted to challenge and most of all you taught me to believe in myself, You gave me the courage to achieve any goals I wanted. Thanks for all your love and shoulders to lean on when I needed them. Thanks for being my Guardian Angel.....I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU... LOVE ALWAYS YOUR DAUGHTER TAMMI

Harold was probably the GREATEST mechanic in the world, second only to his awesome, down home personality. He took care of Larry's cars then mine after our marriage. I would go there with some "noise"(mechanical illerate) coming from my car and 9 out of 10 times it would cost me $1,000 which meant 0 dollars. He did so much for so many people just like us. That's just the way he was. We are going to miss you terribley Bud, my condolences and Prayers go out to your family as, they have lost the "GREATEST MAN I EVER KNEW".

PEACE BE WITH THEM ALL. And thanks Bud.

Harold You Were A Wonderful Man.

For Me & My Family There Was Nothing In The World You Would Not Do For Us.

No Matter The Time Of Day Or Evening.

Our Conversation Were Alway A Pleasure & A Joy.

Harold You Truley Are A Great Friend.

We Will Miss You Dearly.

Our Condolences To His Family.

My family and I would like to thank my father for such a wonderful loving life, he was a great man with lots of character and love. His life was short but he touched many in his time here on earth and we will deeply miss him. DAD THANKS FOR BEING THE BEST DAD ANYONE COULD HAVE WE LOVE YOU AND WILL MISS YOU

This is my beloved dad. I am his oldest child. He has two other grandchildren, Tiara (Jesse) Duncan and David Jesse and two great grandbabies, Andrea (5) and Joshua (4), by Tiara. I have lived in the Kansas City area most my life and only saw my dad on occasions. He was a wonderful dad to all of us and a great husband to my Chicago mom. Dad was a great man with so much wisdom and a heart of gold. I loved my dad, Harold Keith Grantland. From his daughter, Judy

Harold was a very personable young man when I first met him at 16. My 1st husband introduced us. "I RECKON" was one famous saying I'll never forget. I'll always remember his smiling face and good nature.
