jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

I am clicking a delete button on a modal form and the form disappears, yet the entire page remains greyed out.  I have searched and searched for a resolution and tried just about everything I found. But, ALAS no success.

Everything else on the page works, I am stumped.

                        onclickSubmit: function (rp_ge, rowid) {
                            // reset the value of processing option to true to
                            // skip the ajax request to 'clientArray'.
                            rp_ge.processing = true;

                            // we can use onclickSubmit function as "onclick" on "Delete" button
                            // delete row
                            $("#delmod" + $grid[0].id).hide();
                            $grid.jqGrid('delRowData', rowid);

                            $grid.focus();

                            if ($grid[0].p.lastpage > 1) {
                                // reload grid to make the row from the next page visable.
                                $grid.trigger("reloadGrid", [{ page: $grid[0].p.page}]);
                            }
                            //return[true,""];  TRIED THIS AS WELL
                            return true;
                        },

Oh and I am using version 4.5.2

Thanks in advance for any help you can pass my way.
