She met the love of her life in 1977, Edgar "Eddy" H. Griffing, Sr; they married. Though their parents were skeptical of teenagers marrying, the young couple knew what they were doing. A marriage spanning 47 years, raising two boys and one girl.
Becky will be remembered for the loving care and joy she brought to everyday life. Becky devoted her life to her family and spoiling her grandkids.
She had a remarkable gift for connection and would make a friend wherever she went. That welcoming nature paired with her genuine affection.
Above all, Becky treasured her family. Her love for them, for her friends and for the people around her was a defining part of her life and that love will remain a lasting memory for all who knew her.
She is survived by her husband Edgar (Eddy) Griffing, her children Eddy Griffing, Jr, and Patricia Barnes Smith; her two brothers Danny Murphy (Linda Murphy) and Billy Murphy; sister-in-laws Melinda McKenzie and Ann Ward; and many cousins, nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her father Jack Murphy, mother Hilda Murphy, her son Jesse Griffing, brother-in-law Ricky Ward, mother-in-law Grace Griffing, and father-in-law Arthur Griffing. Their memories remained part of her life and story and now she is reunited with those who went before her.
