Laurie, Danny & Mandy, There truly are no words I can say except I really do understand the pain and heartache you are feeling at this time, and no words will take that pain away. Just like my Herb, your Joe was one of the best....His love for his family topped his list of accomplishments and his eagerness to always be willing to lend a helping hand was admired and appreciated by all those who knew him. I am so grateful that our families became one this past year and the closeness we have come to share is something that my family and I will be forever grateful for. You were there for us just 7 and 1/2 short months ago....so now it is our turn to return all the love and kindness you and your entire family gave to us when we needed it the most. We are here for you always and Joe, I just know you and my Herb are sittin together, probably havin a cold one with our little man Caleb next to you and probably throwin a baseball around. You guys take good care of each other and though it's really really tough...Laurie and I will try and do the same. xoxoxo

I can not begin to express how our hearts hurt for you all. These past few days we have been reliving all of the memories we have shared with you on and off the many baseball fields. When I saw this picture you have chosen, it made me smile. Of all his accomplishments, that special season was the most rewarding, for it touched so many young boys lives. Joe was a great man, well respected as a great role model and friend. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him. Fondly, Al and Carole

With deepest sympathy and heartfelt condolences to the Granville and Winkler families. Joe was a fierce competitor on the diamond (as well as the basketball court as I recall)and he brought this passion to everything he did and how he lived his life.

To the Granville family:
I had the pleasure of knowing Joe through baseball many years ago. We all knew Joe as a great catcher for Wallenpaupack and when he became one of our teammates we were extremely happy. I had many different catchers that I played with over the years, but no one was any better than Joe. Our family sends our sincere condolences to yours knowing that a great person is now gone.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Joe's family during this time of devastating loss.
Joe was a truly caring person in both his personal and business life. He always wanted to do things right, and no matter how difficult the situation, he faced it with a smile. And, he had the in-born
talent to follow it through.
He will surely be missed as
an outstanding craftsman, and
outstanding individual.

An avid sports fan my memories of Joe will be attending my basketball games when I was in high school. Then watching his daughter Mandi succeed in basketball when I was fortunate to coach her many years ago. He was such an important part to the community and will be dearly missed by all the lives he touched. My thoughts and prayers are with Danny Mandi and the rest of his family.

This is just a short note to say thank you to one of the best men I have ever known. He was a big part of our family from the age of 14 and was one of the kindest, loving, soft-hearted people I have ever known. Joe has always been there for all of us, when we needed him. He may have had other things to do, but always put us first. Being a husband and father always came first. He loved Laurie, Danny and his Mandi so much. His stops at my house after work for a cup of coffee made my day! We all love you, Joe and miss you, and will never forget you. I only wish we had one more day for a visit and a cup of coffee.

Joey has been a fixture in my family for as long as I can remember. During this time he became my father's best friend, my mothers son, my sister Laurie's love of her life and another sibling to the rest of us. He was always there through all of our ups and downs and always went out of his way to help in any way he could. Because of this we all ended up counting on him for so many things that I don't even think we realize just yet how much. Joe's life changed forever and for the better when they had Danny & Mandi. He was born to be a father and a great one he was. He led by example. There will never be a day that goes bye when he won't be in our thoughts or memories. We loved you so much Joey! Laurie, Danny, Nikki and Mandi we need to count on each other now. To Barb, Jackie and Ruth it has to be some comfort to know you had the best and he loved you and your families unconditionally.
To Joey, I hope you're in your field of dreams!

Jimbo posted a condolence
The town of Hawley will never be the same without Joe Granville. He was always Mr. Granville to me, yet he always treated me and all of Danny's friends like one of his own and for that I am grateful. I will always cherish the many memories that Dan and I were lucky to share together with our dads on the baseball diamond. However, the impact Joe had went far beyond baseball. His true passion was his family. His unending love and care for the people around him epitomized this selfless man. Family and friends always came first. His unselfishness, love for others, and tireless work ethic garnered the respect of everyone that knew Joe. My heart goes out to the entire Granville family... Dan- You and I along with both our dads will always have a special bond that will last eternal. I know you had the utmost love and respect for your dad and I know he had the utmost love and respect for you. Keep making him proud by continuing to follow the values he instilled in you the past 28 years... I'm proud to be able to call myself a friend of the Granville family. Coach, you will surely be missed. God Bless!

"Baseball is not life and death. But in life and death, we remember the game, and we remember those who shared the game with us." Today my heart is back in Hawley as they remember a great husband, father, and friend. From watching Mr. Granville coach his boys to letting the girls enjoy time at the mall, he was a great part in all of our childhoods and like a father to each one of us. Mrs. Granville, Mandi, and Danny: I wish I could be there with you all during this time. I am always thinking of you and sending my love.

Hawley lost a very special man last week. This world is a little bit nicer place for having a man like Joe Granville in it. Such a kind, hard-working, honest individual, I am so proud to have called him friend - and just as proud to call his family my dear friends.
To his wife, Laurie; kids, Mandi, Dan and wife Nicki; sisters, Ruthie, Jackie, and Barb and their families; the Winkler family; and all his friends - my heartfelt sympathy and prayers are sent. He loved all of you so much and was very proud of his family.
If I can leave you with anything during this most difficult time, please remember the Promise we have through Christ - if we believe, we will be together again.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal Life.
