Grant Walsh

Grant and I met and bonded over our love of music. He was so special to me, and a lot of who I am comes from Grant. He will be so sorely missed.

Words cannot express this loss and the void left in all of our hearts. Grant was a creative force and an inspiration to us all. He showed us his vision in life and how he saw the world always seemed to be so beautiful. Let us carry on his passions and let his spirit push us further every day. So much love, Sophie and Michael

Carole, I’m so sorry for your loss and deeply saddened to hear about Grant’s passing. Grant was such wonderful & genuinely kind person. He was also one of the most talented photographers and artists I had the honor of working alongside at ISU. Keeping you and your family in my thoughts and sending all my love.

I’ll always remember Grant’s first day at Crate & CB2. He was an awesome addition to our style team… an incredible talent with impeccable taste and an infectious laugh & warm smile. I loved getting to work with him, we all did. We were all so shocked and saddened to hear. I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I’m sending all the love and prayers to your family.

I'm so sorry to hear about Grant. He was such a sweet guy!! We met at Althoff and graduated in 2006.

Carole, my husband and I had the pleasure of meeting Grant through a friend at a hockey game. Although we only knew him briefly, we were absolutely enchanted. He was a warm, happy and positive person. Our hearts are filled with sorrow and can’t imagine your pain. May his memory be a blessing.

Carole- Please accept my deepest sympathy over Grant's premature passing. He was a wonderful young man. God bless you and yours. Sincerely, Frank Babka

Carol, I worked with Grant, where he assisted me. Such a sweet and talented man. He would tell me about your home and love of the holidays and say this is where his talents came from. I am so very sad for this news. I send you my condolences for you and your family, may the memory of his warm smile, help your hearts at this difficult times.

Carole, Please accept my sincere sympathy for your tragic loss. My prayers are with you at this time.

So many of my memories at St. Teresa, Althoff and beyond involve Grant. He was a friend to everyone, a stranger to none, and one of the most talented artists I’ve ever known. My heart is completely broken… and I know many others’ are too. He was the guy who knew how to make us laugh and smile — and he knew how to throw a heck of a Halloween in July party or a surprise birthday party. He was so loved by all. Sending my deepest sympathies to Carole and the rest of his family. We love you, Grant.

Carole, I am so sorry for your loss I can’t imagine your pain. Karen and I lost our first baby after only 24 hours. I guess I would have multiple that hurt by 33 years. I am praying that God gives you comfort and sustains you in yet another tragedy.

Carole, so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of knowing Grant and working with him on set. He was kind and tuned in to others needs and always spoke highly of you. He will be dearly missed.

I wish to express my deepest and most sincere condolences to Grants mother, and family, and friends. I’m so very sorry for your great loss. May peace surround you all as you move thru these difficult times. May your memories comfort and strengthen each and every one of you. My heart aches for all who knew him and loved him so. I had the pleasure to meet Grant thru my son Matt in Chicago.

I am heart sick and devastated. I was lucky enough to spend time with Grant at ISU. He was one of the highlights of my day and I loved any time I was able to get with him, Grant was charming, witty, darling, brilliant, creative, fascinating, and classically handsome. I always assumed that I would be reading about him in Variety one day. Grant was one of those extraordinary people that made everyone better for just having known him. I am so very sorry for your loss. I promise you that he will live on in so many hearts. Grant was a precious, shooting star and I consider myself so lucky to have experienced his light. All of my thoughts are with his family.

He was always kind, sweet, intelligent, and funny—always carried a beautiful light and gentle energy inside. We’re grateful to have had him as part of our community. Profund condolences and prayers to Grant’s family.

Grant was so special. He had that rare ability to invite you into his home and instantly make you feel so comfortable and loved. A great, kind soul with a caring heart and dorky sense of humor. You are already missed so much.

I worked with Grant at Groupon, and he was a talented stylist. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing. My thoughts are with him.

Sometimes life is so unfair. Sorry for your loss .

So sorry to hear of the passing of Grant. I was one of his photo teachers at ISU. Grant’s work was very smart and I thought he would do very well in art school and beyond in whatever career he chose. He was a very friendly and likable person, helpful to his peers and a pleasure to be around. I think every teacher dreads to hear about the loss of a student. A deep loss.

Carol our prayers for you and yours. You have been so strong with all of the loss of family. I know that God is with you.

It was such a shock. Carol I am so sorry. It seems like just yesterday that the boys were doing things together. Please know that I am here if you need anything. Thoughts and prayers for you and your family
