John Grantz Obituary

For those of us who saw his goodness, kindness and love John left a wonderful impression on our lives. From his cunning half smile to his contagious laugh to his humor and witiness. He reminded us to never take life to seriously. It will be a long time before we see someone with his love for the game the speed to make a double into a homer and the talent to catch every ball that came his way. Our prayers are with John's children as they make their way through this world with their father as their own special angel. We will keep JG in our hearts forever.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
John was a great friend and I'll never forget him, we had some good times.

To the Grantz Family,
My deepest condolences for the passing of Johnny. May God bless him and watch over all of you.

Your family is in my prayers. I havent seen john in many years. But in the short time i did know him he touched my life. He was great in sports remember ,and he made me laugh. He also struggled and im glad he is at peace. God bless his wife and kids.

To the Grantz Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

To the Grantz Family, Sorry to hear of your loss. I have many memories of John as his tutor at Everett and a teacher in CCD at St. Maurice. (Ritchie was my student). John was one of a kind and I'm sure he will be missed by all. Just know that his pain is gone & may he rest in peace.

Even though I haven't seen you since I was really really really little, I still remember the good old JG.

To Johns family my prayers are with you.To John I didnt get to see you in a few years, I did try when I was in vegas I had no luck.I wish I knew you were here.I would of loved to talk to you and say my goodbyes.I guess its best tho because the last memory I have of you. you painted my kitchen in my old house.you came up to me and told me you were going to use your t-shirt to make some kind of design .I didnt know what to say.I was told to let you go head and do what you wanted because it would turn out nice.so I trusted you and it did turn out nice .so thank you JG.Im going to miss the chance of seeing you again but I will always have the memories we shared together.

John was absolutely wonderful at everything he set his mind to. I'm thankful for all of the happy memories I have...there are many. Those of us who knew and loved him will miss his smile and humor. I'm very happy that he will live on in three beautiful children, who I'm sure loved and adored him as much as his nephews did.

I want to offer my condolences to the family. I am a retired Chicago Policeman who worked with John Sr. in the old 10th District. I am unable to attend but, again, my condolences.

To the Grantz Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. J.G was a good guy!
