  6. My very heartfelt deepest sympathy to Jo, Max, Enna and all of his family. Such a shame. A man full of passion, passion for horse riding, passion for archery, passion for leather work, passion for art. Such a shame, taken far too soon. He loved his boys and so very proud of them. I loved his dry humour and quick to get an off beat joke that I made. Rest in peace Grant. Was way too soon but I guess that is life.
