He was the son of Frank Grady and Abiah (Colcord) Grady. He lived in the home on Tufts Road, where he was born 100 years ago, and was proud to relate that he slept in the same bedroom where he was born. Chet attended the Pitcher School and graduated from Crosby High School in 1926, where he participated in all sports. He was a star athlete in basketball, football, baseball and track. He trained during his lifetime to be able to care for his health. He led a very productive life and set goals for himself, which he successfully attained. After graduating from Crosby High School, he planned to further his education. As this period of time was during the Great Depression when jobs and finances were at a premium, he worked for years at any available job: cutting wood, driving truck, filling in at the post office and other days on a farm. Finally he saved money to enroll in Went-worth Institute of Technology, Boston, where he learned weld-ing and machine work that complemented the blacksmith-ing he had learned from his father. After 1932 he returned to Belfast. He had been offered a teaching position at Went-worth, but Maine and home beckoned him back to his roots, where he had accomplished another goal - to establish a machine shop. He built Grady Machine Shop. He was a mem-ber of Belfast Masonic Lodge for more than 55 years; served 22 consecutive years on Belfast City Council; and later 10 years as a Waldo County Commissioner. He is survived by his loving wife, Josephine, who was his constant help and "teammate" for more than 60 years; his children; son, Croll of Pennsylvania; two daughters, Mary and David Clark of Belfast and Nancy and Steve Weitz of Ashland, Mass.; several grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews and a host of cousins.
