He graduated from Ogden High school in 1943 and joined the Merchant Marines in December of 1943. He served mostly in the South Pacific until 1945 and then made two trips to Europe and one to the Mediterranean in 1946. Those trips were immensely enjoyed.

They founded Dave Grant & Sons Bull Co., and did business throughout the Western States as Grants Range Bulls. Lew worked closely with his nephews, Rich, Jeff, and Dave Grant. He retired in 2005. He took first place in the National Go-Kart race in Missoula, MT in 1962 and was inducted into the Utah Cowboy Hall of Fame in 2013.
