Good Journey and Rest Well Grady

I first encountered Grady back in 1978 when I was stationed at Ft. Jackson,S.C.(Columbia). I fancied myself a pretty good player back then. He was a gentleman of high intellect and dogged determination. I became a true student of the game of pool while listening to him describe every possible explanation of ball nuances. Later, while working at the Billiard Congress I fielded many a call from Grady for John Lewis. Grady always had a lot of things going on and ideas to make pool better. Grady was a Player's Player. He has given more of himself to the sport than anyone I can recall,and that isn't just his own money,but his time,and of course,his knowledge. He isn't merely a Pool Legend,He is a GIANT! Good Journey and Rest Well Grady.

Grady's voice and his commentary is a part of pool. He is pool to me. Never got the chance to meet him in this life, but I'll see him somewhere else some other time. Grady's family, be strong, be proud and be well. Run out in peace Grady.

Rest in peace Grady ! The pool world has lost one of the true gentleman and professors of this sport. You can always tell he loved this sport when he commentated . He had excitement in his voice and love for the sport. You will be missed !

With Grady's passing everyone associated with the game is a little diminished today. But he gave the pool community so much during his life that we're all still way ahead. Thanks, Grady.
