Richard E. Grenwis

RICHARD E. “RICH” GRENWIS age 64, beloved son of the late Thomas and Margaret (nee Bremer); dearest brother of twins Catherine Woolnough, Barbara House (husband Dean), Geraldine “Geri” McMyler (husband Charles, deceased), Terese Woodcraft (husband Bruce) and the late Thomas (wife Beverly); dear uncle and great-uncle of many. Preceded in death by his feline companion George and canine companion Ginger.

Rich was born November 4, 1959 in Cleveland.  He graduated in 1977 from Cathedral Latin and attended Cleveland State University.  His career path led him to the art of screen printing. During his free time, car restoration and listening to 60s and 70s music brought him great enjoyment. Always cheering on Cleveland, Rich was an avid Browns and Indians fan.  He was highly devoted to his family, who lovingly remember his fun sense of humor.
