Karl Griffiths Obituary

GRIFFITHS, Karl A. March 22, 1931 - March 23, 2018 Friday March 23, 2018 marks the passing of Karl Griffiths. He passed away peacefully at the home he loved surrounded by the family he loved. Karl was born in Victoria and worked at B.C. Tel for 35 years, but enjoyed retirement for the past 32 years. Karl is survived by his wife and companion of 63 years, Rosemary Griffiths, and their four children Stephen Griffiths, Sandra Varley (Rick), Sharon Guy (Garry) and Susan Wiggins. He also had five greatly adored grandchildren Robbie, Samantha, Jacob, Morgan and Michael. Karl enjoyed spending his time fishing, travelling, gardening, and walking his dog "Jigs". When visiting Karl you were always greeted with the biggest most welcoming smile and his grandkids always stated that "nobody hugs like gramps". He will be truly missed. At Karl's request, there will be not service but instead a quiet family gathering at a later date.

Dear Rosemary:
Long-time View Royal residents (and I was from there myself) will be saddened to read about Karl, who married a girl descended from the first settlers of that area. I have great memories of the Scottish music at your wedding reception. The district has lost a fine man, liked and respected by many. Beverley joins me in expressing our sincere condolence to all the Kiezer and Stewart descendants, especially to you and your family.

Rosemary and family, we are sorry to hear of Karl's passing. He was always such a friendly guy to meet in the neighbourhood when out for a walk or bike ride. Also we miss the spring delivery of squash and tomato plants.
Take Care
