Marjorie J Griffin

Marjorie Joyce Griffin was to Burnett and Marjorie Jones on October 2, 1941 in Phoenix, AZ. She accepted Christ at an early age. Marjorie graduated from Phoenix Union High School and then went on to pursue her nursing degree and worked in that field until retiring just a few years ago.

Marjorie most affectionately known as “Honey” enjoyed life to its fullest. Always the life of the party, whether at the casino, the park or under her mother’s carport drinking on her favorite drink!

Marjorie was preceded in death by her parents Burnett and Marjorie Jones; and her brothers Burnett Jones and Herman Jones.

Marjorie leaves to cherish her loving memory: children Bobby Lee Brown (Sharonda), Gwendolyn Denise Brown (Kenneth), Kevin Andre Walker (Dorothy) and Marjorie “Josie” Binford; sisters Juanita and Gloria (Tim); brothers Sandy, Robert and Elmer; 13 grandchildren; 9 great grandchildren along with a host of other relatives and friends.

What Is A Mother?

Mother is soft tiptoes and sweet hugs.

Mother is joyous kisses and tear of faith.

Mother is true love, wisdom and strength.

Mother is warmth, grace, softness and cheer.

Mother's love is blessed, special, unending.

No one takes Mother's place.

D is for death, that's what we all have to face.

Because when the Lord put us here, He put us

here to someday take us away, but not that

the Lord don't love us all. Because we all have a

number He will someday call.

Give me my flowers while I live.

Give me my flowers if you have

them to give. Bring my flowers to my place,

Bring them in a vase. Bring me my flowers while

I can still smell because you can't send them

to Heaven or Hell.
