Its hard to believe it has been 5 years since Leo's passing. As golf season is coming to an end here in the Northeast and Villanova basketball is about to begin for another year, I can't help thinking about Leo and the two things that bound us together for many years. A good friend and will miss him always.

My Father was the greatest man I have ever know. He was my hero. I never looked up to anyone as much as I did him. I want to live my life exactly as he did with a loving wife, father, and grandfather. If you knew him you knew there wasn't anyone like him. He made everyone feel like he was your bestfriend and sincerely cared about you. I took it for granted how wonderful he was and all the people he touched. My two girls absolutely love him and would always say "Were's Pop" or this is "Pops song". I know he is looking after all of us just like he did his whole life. He will never leave our family in our thoughts and hearts!

I Love You Dad! You are who I want to be!

Love,
Leo

To the family of Leo Griffith:
I knew Leo for the past five years, as a fellow in the insurance industry. He impressed me with his dedication to family, sharing many stories about the grand children. I trusted him and found him to be a very decent and good man. I am better for having known him.

My thoughts and prayers are yours during this time.

God Bless,

Shocking and sad news indeed. I have known Patti since first grade, and Leo was my late brother Terry's friend since high school. I just saw Leo and Patti Griffith nine days ago at my brother's funeral. Heartfelt condolences to Patti and the Griffith family.
