To all who also loved Griff, I would like to express my extreme sadness and shock at his sudden passing. Although we only spoke occasionally the past several years, he always made an effort to stay connected and tell me proudly about all his children, and grandchildren's lives and accomplishments. In the 39 plus years I was lucky enough to have him as my stepdad and my daughter Kendall's Pap for the last 25, he was always someone I looked up to. He was a hard working,gentle,ethical,quiet and kind man with a baritone voice full of charm and compassion. Words cannot express my gratitude for his loving care of my mother throughout their 25 year marriage and at the end. He will be greatly missed. With heartfelt feelings of loss and regret that I planned to visit Ohio this summer instead of last, I just want to say again, Love you Griff. Kim
