3 Paul Grannan 13th Rotary Paul Grannan Annual Golf Tournament The Rotary Club of Saint John, NB Mr. Paul Grannan Family, friends, business and sporting associates of the late Paul Grannan have come together to create a lasting memorial that will benefit the community he so loved his native Saint John. The Paul Grannan Fund, with The Greater Saint John Community Foundation, will benefit dozens of local charities year after year with earnings from the permanently endowed fund. These are the very charities which Paul himself supported and helped with their respective campaigns over the years. Born in 1943, Paul Grannan was the youngest son of the late Sir Richmond Louis Grannan (he was knighted by the Pope as a knight of St. Gregory for his service to church and community) and the late Elizabeth Margaret Gorman. Through his many years in the Saint John community, Paul was able to connect with countless local residents through both business and friendship. Loved and remembered by his surviving family and friends, the Paul Grannan Annual Golf Tournament fundraiser is certainly a memorable, first-rate and fun affair.
