He will be fondly remembered as the best husband, father, son, brother, and friend.<\/p>\n<p>\nJack\u2019s family is eternally grateful to their family and many friends who supported them during his illness. Your visits, calls, well wishes and prayers will never be forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn addition to his father, Jack is survived by his wife of 38 years, Tammy Granville; two children: Jenna Granville and husband, Geoff Graham of Philadelphia and Lucas Granville and wife, Sharon Lin of Moosic; two brothers: Paul Granville and wife, Theresa of Carbondale and James Granville and wife, Donna of Montdale; one sister: Kimberly Wester and husband, Quinn of Connecticut; and several nieces and nephews.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe was also preceded in death by a brother: Joseph Granville.<\/p>\n<p>\nA viewing will be held Thursday from 3-6 p.m. at Carmine J. &amp; Louis C.
