	For those who do not know me, I’m Grant Sarver's oldest daughter.

	

	As many of you now know, the start to 2012 has us saying goodbye to our
 pop, a truly amazing man, wonderful father, loving husband and great 
friend to all who came across his path (especially if they knew how to 
fire up a forge or tell a dirty or corny joke). It is with truly heavy 
hearts that we ask you to join us in remembering and celebrating a life 
that was taken from all of us too soon.

	

	As pop would have wanted, we are celebrating his life and not mourning 
his death this Saturday, January 7 at 4pm at the Centerstage Theatre 
Arts Conservatory (Knutzen Family Theatre), 3200 SW Dash Point Road, 
Federal Way, WA.

	

	We will also be hosting a more informal gathering at my parents’ home 
sometime next week for all his blacksmith friends to laugh, cry and 
celebrate his spirit and life. More information on this will be 
forthcoming.

	

	Thank you all for the friendship, love, support and community you have shared and built with pop.

	

	Please feel free to contact me if there are any questions.

	

	Kei
