Everyone called you " Hub " Were not sure were you got the nickname, I guess Granville, was a big name for a little boy. He will live forever in my heart he was the sweetest very Quiet, But when he did speak it was So Funny and enduring you wouldnt forget, He would talk to you about the Bible that made you want to listen he had a soothing voice, On Sunday Mornings when I was growing up, He would pick my sister and I up and then go to my cousins house and pick him up, and then on to another cousins house and pick her up, He was like the Mailman on Sunday Mornings He got there come rain,Sleet, Snow or hail He would pick us up for Sunday School no matter what! The Things I learned at that little Church are still with me today, I was Baptised At this little Church All Because Of Hub.. I know the Lord as my Savior:

Granville Prater Was Married to My Gr Aunt Elsie (Bailey) Prater, They Have a Beautiful Daughter Debbie Prater, He had the Best Gardens and the best Honey, The neighbor and Hub were always in honey and garden competions, Hub worked At Parma Industries, Parma ,Michigan for many years. He would come home form work with his gray lunch box and let us see if he had any left over goodie's Im sure he went and bought the goodies on the way home... He had False Teeth that he hated but when company was over he would put them on. When ever he would look at one of kids he would some how shoot that bottom set of teeth out of his mouth and try to make you laugh or in my cousins case Make you cry.. It was a great time at ther house growing up ..

When I must Leave you for a little while,
Please do not greive and shed wild tears
And hug your sorrows to you through the years.
But start out bravely with a gallant smile,
And for my sake and in my name,
Live on and do all the same things
Feed not your lonliness on empty days,
But fill each waking hour in useful ways,
Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer
And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near,
And never, never be afraid to die,
For I am waiting for you in the sky!


Granville was the Son Of Stewart and Caroline (Nobel) Prater
