Obituary
Send FlowersBefore he went to war, Travis J. Grigg told his father that if the worst happened, he didn't want mourners to spend money on flowers. He wanted them to donate to Inola High School's athletic program. Grigg, after all, had virtually lived on sports. He was a good catcher in baseball, an all-county receiver in football and part of a powerhouse basketball squad that never lost a conference game. Principal Robert Kinnick called Grigg an "all-American kid." He talked about the young man's "subtle" demeanor in class and his smooth athleticism on the field of play. "I watched him play a zillion ballgames," Kinnick said. "He wasn't flashy because he was so smooth in what he did. He was just a natural athlete." Grigg, 24, of Inola, Okla., was killed Nov. 15 by a bomb blast near his vehicle in Taji. He graduated high school in 1999 and was assigned to Fort Campbell. Grigg joined the Army after working in construction and airplane maintenance. He told his father he wanted to join the Tulsa Fire Department. "That made me proud," said Barney Grigg, a widower and volunteer firefighter for 30 years.

Grigg,
You are the only chiefs fan this charger fan could have a healthy debate with! :-) You were a great soldier, you picked things up quickly, knew when to step up and when to follow. I am sad that you are no longer physically with us, however I honor you everyday by being the best SSG I can be. Guys like you and the rest of your section gave, along with that platoon have me the motivation to keep giving when I thought I had nothing left. Your memory and spirit live on, which...
