Gregory Griffin

September 2, 1966 — July 12, 2019

Greg was born September 2, 1966 in Sumpter, S.C. and passed away Friday, July 12, 2019 after a brave fight with liver & lung cancer.
He graduated from Columbine High School, Littleton, CO in 1985. He then served in the United States Navy from February 1986 to November 1992 servings on the USS Florida out of Bangor, WA, USS Darter out of Sasebo, Japan and the USS W.H. Bates, SSN out of Pearl Harbor, HI where he was honorably discharged.
Greg was an easygoing, big hearted guy who would do anything to help anyone. He loved golfing, bowling, and taking vacations with his family. He loved the Denver Broncos and then became a New Orleans Saints fan after moving to the south and married a die-hard New Orleans Saints fan (but claims it was because "they rarely played the Denver Broncos.")
He was preceded in death by his mother, Mary Griffin; his paternal grandparents, Donald and Margaret Stelter; and maternal grandfather, Coy Parker.
He is survived by his loving and supportive wife of  21 years, Carol Eighmey Griffin; father, John T.
