Mother Gloria Behn Grant

It is with abundant bliss that we celebrate the life of queen mother, Gloria B. Grant, a woman of infinite love and compassion. Mrs. Grant was born on September 7, 1930, and transitioned out of this life on April 23, 2026.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband, Leonard L. Grant; her son, Edwin L. Grant; and her brother, Paul T. Behn. Through Mrs. Grant’s journey of 95 years, she touched many lives with her smile, picture taking, humorous antidotes and unwavering spirit of perseverance.
