To the Griffin family...I am sorry for your loss. I remember fondly your mother's joyful and impetuous spirit and the many good times we had at Tifft and our trips to Mayville.

Jerrome, Donna and Chuck and family, so sorry to hear about your mom. Will always remember her smile and how she enjoyed her many vacation/trips. I know how much my mom missed her calls when she moved. I am sure they are together catching up now in heaven, free of pain and at rest in peace with God.
