Our Deepest Sympathy on the loss of Dean. (And my apology for such a late sympathy.) He was a generous benefactor to the Monastery of the Holy Spirit in Conyers Ga--near Lithonia. In addition to that he was a friend of my family. My father, Lawrence Myslinski, was employed by Griffith Labs (now Foods)for over 50 years. The Monastery and the Myslinski Family are deeply grateful for Dean's life and the whole Griffith family and business. Our prayers and love are with them. With much sympathy...

I worked for Dean from 1998 - 2003.  We both had a passion for boats and had many conversations about them.  Even after I left the company and came back to Griffith Laboratories office if Dean was in the office and heard that I was coming he would invite me up to his office to look at his latest boat.
He built a great company and I will fondly remember my time there.
My thoughts and prayers to Lois and family.

My deepest condolences to the Griffith Family for their loss. Dean was an exceptional man who I admired greatly. I was fortunate to learn much from him as his was a life well lived. May the lord welcome Dean with open arms and may his family be blessed in the future without him.

So very sorry to hear of Dean's passing. I was the executive secretary to both Mr. Maren and Mr. Pusinelli for 35 years. I have such fond memories of Dean and Griffith Labs. My sincere condolences to the family.

Holding dear Lois, Brian, Lori, Scott and extended family in our thoughts and prayers, as family was the most important thing to Dean. A lifetime as a neighbor; forty years of work on the Chapel; I now know my parents, Derald and June West and Dean are finally together planning the next mission for the unchurched... Praise the Lord for this man with vision, drive and respect.. Love you, Dean. Thank you for everything - Praise God!
