Mrs. Griffin has been our neighbor for many years. Her and I spent many hours talking about what her life was like growing up with her Mom and Dad, her life in NC, her daughters and grandson whom she cherished, her sweet life with her husband, her love of cooking, her years working outside the home…I will always treasure those times I had with her. She was soft-spoken, kind and always had such a beautiful smile. We loved her and will miss her greatly but rejoice in knowing she is with her Lord and her sweet husband. With Deepest Condolences to her family, Pam and Jim Ponce
