Unable to attend Granvilles service due to weather. My sympathies as a fishing friend, customer at Cromb & Merritt Sports, and a volunteer at Take a Kid Fishing. Great memories.

Granville guided me to catch my first ever backcountry trout when I was 14 in the Canterbury Fly-fishing club. A great fisherman and a great man. He will be missed! Nick Moody
