Gregorios "Gregory" Grantsis
Gregorios Richard Grantsis Sr. a.k.a “Flea” was tragically taken from us on the early morning of November 9, 2021. Greg was the innocent victim of gun violence, swiftly taken from us by the hands of a careless soul. In a split second, many lives were altered as this irreplaceable soul was taken far too soon. Greg leaves behind two children who he absolutely adored, his 13 year old daughter Kaylee and 10 month old son Gregorios Jr. Greg had one of the biggest hearts and was always there to help with his family, friends, even a stranger when in need. Greg was a charismatic, energetic, fun loving, happy, and adventurous soul! Whether attending a concert, festival, or fishing trip, he was always doing something with the ones he love as. He was fearless and willing to try something new and lived life to the fullest, usually with his "entourage" in tow. He was quick-witted, there to make those laugh, and always the life of every party, he impacted every life he touched. He loved to fish with his daughter, take rides on his boat, watch her excel at her soccer games, bmx race as a child, play pool with friends, travel with family, and make memories with those he kept near and dear. Greg was an amazing father adored by his daughter and son, whom he was recently teaching to crawl, walk, play peekaboo, and say his favorite word “Dada”. He loved caring for his brother Nick, attending Patriots games together, and watching him play in his basketball league. Greg worked beside his brother and father at Bill’s Auto Repair for many years and also worked alongside many close friends always adding to his vast knowledge of skills. He was a clever mechanic, a true "Jack of all Trades" and always willing to lend a hand. He was a very proud Brockton resident, attending Brockton public schools throughout his childhood and adolescence and will be remembered by the hundreds of friends he met along his way. He was a family oriented man, dedicated friend, and always affectionate to those he loved. He was very proud of his Greek heritage which he always spoke highly about and adored his Yiya who he loved deeply. Being as lovable and loving as he was he had many life-long friends and a huge extended family. Greg loved his parents and all of his siblings and was always big on trying to keep the family close. We were not prepared to say goodbye to someone with so much life and love left to give.
