GRAYSON MARC GRANDMONT Grayson Marc Grandmont passed peacefully in the arms of his loving parents on July 10, 2012 at the Children's Hospital in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Grayson was born to proud parents Leslie and Bradley Grandmont on January 23, 2012 at St. Boniface Hospital. Grayson had to endure months of being in hospital due to many rare illnesses and he fought hard to overcome them. In the six months that he was on this Earth, he touched many people's lives and was loved deeply by not only family and friends, but by so many who had not had the chance to meet him. Grayson is survived by his parents, Bradley and Leslie Grandmont; grandparents, Helen and Ben Dueck and Edmund and Loretta Grandmont; aunts, uncles, and cousins, Darcy and Cynthia Grandmont (Lindsay, Carson, Caelen), Darren and Nicole Grandmont, Jennifer and Colin Cormack (Caelan, Braedan, Leah) and Lisa Guenter. The family would like to say thank you to the staff on CK-5 and the PICU for taking such great care of Grayson while he was at the Children's Hospital and a special thank you to Dr. Geoff Cuvelier whose dedication and compassion towards Grayson is one they will never forget. Funeral services will be held at the Gilbart Funeral Home in Selkirk, MB on Saturday, July 14, 2012 at 3:00 p.m. I will travel empty-handed. There is not a single thing I have collected in my life That I would ever want to bring except... The love of those who loved me And the warmth of those who cared. The happiness and memories And the magic that we shared. The Next Place Warren Hanson Gilbart Funeral Home, Selkirk in care of arrangements. www.gilbartfuneralhome.com

  • Les & Brad, We are so incredibly sorry for the loss of Grayson. We pray that God will uplift you and help you to understand just how much impact Grayson had on everyone during his stay here. Grayson, even though as short as it was played a huge roll in so many lives and has touched so many people. He was a beautiful baby boy and I am sad that I didn't get to meet him. Praying for healing. - Posted by: Christine (Cousin) on: Jul 13, 2012

  • Leslie & Brad; We want to express our sincerest sympathies. We know what it is like to sit at the bedside of your child, not knowing if they will live or die - hanging on evey word the doctor says; watching every facial expression on the nurse's faces; making all the promises to God that you can think of, if He will just save your child. We know and understand that terror. How our hearts ached for you. Now he is gone, and you have to go on. But how? Every day, get out of bed, do something to keep yourself going, and in time, do something for someone else. God will place people in your life for you to minister to through this experience. Grayson will live on through you guys helping others. Our prayer for you is for strength and courage, peace and patience. - Posted by: Judy Friesen (Ben's sister-in-law) on: Jul 12, 2012
