Casey Griffin Obituary

Casey Glenn Griffin Casey Glenn Griffin was born to John and Jill Griffin (Hesston, Kansas) on July 22, 2007. A big brother, Austin, welcomed him, and he would later be joined by a sister, Elyse. With great love, comes great grief. God decided Casey's work on earth was done in the early morning hours of Thursday, September 29, 2022 and he was finally freed form the constraints of his earthly body. He was welcomed into the gates of heaven with open arms by his paternal grandparents, Elsie (Larsen) Griffin and John W. Griffin, Sr., and his maternal grandfather, Virgil G. Unruh. He is survived by his parents, John and Jill Griffin, brother and sister, Austin and Elyse, of Hesston, and maternal grandmother, Shirley Unruh, of Inman, Kansas. Family will greet friends on Monday, October 10, 2022, 6-8 p.m. at Whitestone Mennonite Church, 629 Crescent Drive, Hesston. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a gift in his memory to the charity of your choice or to Whitestone Mennonite Church.
