It is with heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Richard "Rich" Eugene Griffith Jr., known to many for his kindness, generosity, and considerate nature. Rich left this world on September 22, 2024, in Labelle, Florida, at the age of 60.
Born on August 17, 1964 in Nelsonville, Ohio, Rich was preceded in death by his loving parents, Darcella S Allen Griffith and Richard E.

Rich's legacy will also live on through his siblings; William "Bill" Griffith, Twana "Danyell" Griffith Wooten, Richard "Rick" Cossin, Teresa Henley and their spouses. Along with many nieces, nephews, and numerous dear friends.
Rich's professional journey was diverse, being a jack of all trades. He served as an EMT in McMinnville, Tennessee and worked in construction and carpentry before turning to farming bringing him closer to the land he loved. He was not afraid to get his hands dirty. Each role he undertook reflected his dedication and commitment to excellence in each position.
A lover of life and laughter, Rich had an unparalleled ability to make people smile and offered the best advice. His love for the Tennessee Volunteers football team was well-known. As was his joy in leisurely rides around town in his Jeep and spending time with his family.
Honoring his wishes, no formal service will be held. We invite those who knew and loved Rich to remember him in their own heartfelt ways.
Richard Eugene Griffith Jr. will be eternally missed. His spirit endures in the lives he touched and the joy he brought into this world.
