To the Family of Mr. Grigsby:

Mr. Grigsby was a wonderful person. He was a mentor and friend. He gave me one of my first full-time jobs at Culligan Water Conditioning. It has been at least 17 years since I worked for him, and to this day, he is still the reason that I remember to polish my shoes. He kept an old shoe shine box under his desk and he always said your shoe did not have to be new, but they should be polished. I consider myself fortunate to have known him.

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Gina

I just found out about the passing of your dad. I am very sorry for your loss. I worked for John as a secretary at Grigsby Realty. Your dad was kind to me and I really enjoyed talking with him. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Jan, Jill, Meg and Family,

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Hopefully, your many memories will be of comfort to you during this difficult time. Personally, I don't care how old or sick someone is, it is still so hard to say good-bye to one's loved ones. I just want you all to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Love,

Cindy

I just learned with sorrow of John's passing. My thoughts are with you as I recall with happiness the great days on Shelby St. when we were young. I always liked John and he was always nice to me when I was a youngster and an adult. My condolences to you all. I'll always remember John.
