James Taylor "J.T." Granger, was born September 27, 1981 and passed away March 1, 2026 at the age of 44.

Though his passing was sudden, J.T.'s life was full and he lived it with no regrets. Always up for an adventure, he was a ray of sunshine. The love he shared whole heartedly, beautiful memories of good times with him will forever remain with us. Fishing, boating, and camping the Sabine River was a love of J.T.'s childhood hat he shared with each of his parents, siblings, and extended family. This blossomed into fun times with friends and cousins as an adulting leading to many "hold my beer" moments, that will be laughed about for our lifetimes.

J.T. had many great abilities being a jack of all trades. He was an amazing mechanic. Put a tool in his hands, he could rebuild a engine or solve just about any mechanical problem from a young age.

Deeply loved by his family and friends, we choose to celebrate the joyful times remembering the gentle soul, full of mischief and deep love for each of his family and friends.
