Our sweet son, Preston Gray Griggs, 37 of Kernersville, passed away unexpectedly Sunday, March 27, 2022. He was born November 28, 1984, in Winston-Salem, NC. He was the oldest son of Lonnie Gray Griggs (Statesville) and Judy Osborne Lupo (Rural Hall). He is survived by his adorable son, Daxon Gray Griggs, age 2 and his fiancé’, Nichole Denise Alvino. Preston has four brothers, Garrett Griggs (Sharon), Cody Griggs (Emily), Jared Griggs and Troy Griggs (Statesville). Our son felt he was so blessed to have finally met the love of his life and had his long wished for child. He was the happiest he had ever been in his entire life. He will be so missed! We thank the Lord for allowing the best of Preston to live on in his son Daxon. A celebration of his life will be held 2:00 PM, Friday, April 1, 2022, at Hayworth-Miller Silas Creek Chapel, with Pastor Mark Simmons officiating, followed by internment at Parklawn Memorial Park. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service.
