He was always available to provide a helping hand. When the mount Calvary Elementary School announced there would be no baseball team due to having no Coaches, Bob Grenier volunteered. He volunteered without a clue on how to coach a baseball team. But, what he did know was even better. Everyone had a chance to play. Without Bob Grenier, we would not have a team to play. He managed to do all of this after work several times a week and I never heard him complain once.\n \n\n \nHe wil be greatly missed. His humor, his smile (grin), his love to argue, his hugs and his love. Since the passing of our Mother, he has longed to see her again. Knowing that his last and greatest achievement has been completed, we are happy that his Eternal Rest will be with the Lord and our Mother.\n \n\n \nRest in peace, Pop.........
