David Griffin

Help Honor the Memory of David R. Griffin

As we mourn the unexpected passing of David R. Griffin, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, we reach out to our community for support. David's departure on January 2, 2024, has left a significant emotional and financial impact on his family, particularly his devoted wife of 26 years, Marie Griffin.

David, a gentle and caring soul, leaves behind a legacy of love and dedication. He spent 50 years as a long-haul truck driver, touching lives with his commitment to safety and kindness. Beyond his professional life, David's heart was truly in the joys of family life — from camping and fishing trips to the simple pleasure of being with his grandchildren. He was a man of faith, an active member of the First Baptist Church of Milligan, and a lover of the outdoors.

In this trying time, we seek your help to ensure that Marie and the family can honor David's memory without the added burden of financial strain. Your contribution will assist with funeral expenses and provide support to Marie as she navigates this period of grief.
