After coming home he took on the part time business of making barbecue for a few select customers and made it into what is now Griffins Barbecue. Starting with barbecue then adding sausage and for a time catering as well. He served in the Griffins Fire Dept. in the days when you fought fires without turnout gear. He loved the outside and farming but especially working with a front end loader, overloading it and the truck many times. He loved his family and he worked hard to

provide for them. He was a good teacher willing to take time to show others how to do something new. Most important he loved God and his church and he more than anything wanted to pass that on to the next generation. He understood that putting God first meant things where in right order not that others where in second place. He will be missed but never forgotten.
