Mike I will always remember your Dad as one of the best people in the construction industry and the proud legacy he left to grow with you and your associates. I am sorry to hear of his passing but will always remember the great business relationship we had during my time with architects TRM , including construction projects over many years. He was a star example of a great general contractor and a fair and capable man! Our condolences to your Mom and family, Ric Mocellin (former VP architects Tillmann Ruth Mocellin) -retired

Mike, Chris, and the Grant family My deepest condolence to you and yours on the passing of David. He is well remebered as a fair, firm, and pleasant person in our MOH construction job site meetings.
We were saddened to hear of Dave's passing. He was always a fair & passionate business partner. We extend our condolences to the Grant family.
Auntie Arlene, Michael, Kevin, Chris and family; I'm so sorry for your loss. Uncle Dave holds a special place in my heart and I know he will be missed by many. I remember Uncle Dave (who used to be Uncle Sonny and I can't remember why) as a strong and silent type. Someone my dad looked up to and who gave him strength when times were tough. Uncle Dave always made me feel special - maybe just because I was a girl and he was a father of three sons - but he really made me feel special. When my dad died it gave me great comfort to know that I still had Uncle Dave to look out for me. I hope there is a heaven and that right now dad and Uncle Dave are together, takin' it easy, enjoying a good game of crib and sharing a good laugh. I wish I could be there with you to share in this time of deep grief. Please know that I am with you in heart and soul. All my love, Cathy
