Ambassador Janet Garvey traveled to the West region of Cameroon March 24 to celebrate the life and work of John Granville with the people of Bamendjou. John was a Peace Corps volunteer in Bamendjou from 1997-1999 and returned to the village in 2003 as a Fulbright scholar before joining the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). He and his Sudanese driver were killed by armed gunmen in the early hours of January 1, 2008, in Khartoum.
