Obituary Overview
Granville E. Rehberg
June 19, 1964 ~ November 8, 2018
Granville Edward Rehberg, age 54, of Halifax, passed away suddenly on Thursday, November 8, 2018, at his home.
Born in Halifax, on June 19, 1964, he was the son of the late Greg and Mary (Crawley) Rehberg of Falmouth.
Granville had always been full of life, until 1994 when he had a tragic accident which left him paralyzed from the chest down. Despite his disabilities, he persevered and continued to live his life to the fullest, being one of the best grandfathers, father, brother and friend one could be. Granville took his time also to volunteer by allowing to be the test subject for upcoming (student) doctors and nurses, studying his condition. He also mentored and offered support to others in similar situations. Granville was most proud of being a father and a grandfather. He had a very humorous side and loved to spend time with his brothers and crazy sisters, even if it was an all girls night! Granville was loved and will be greatly missed!
