Mr. Griffin was born June 13, 1963 in East Point, GA to the late Marvin O'Neal Griffin, Sr. and Margie Annette Lipham Kinney. He was a Baptist by faith. We worked as a painter for Eagle Contracting, and was a dedicated employee who loved what he did, and did it well. He especially enjoyed the fellowship of friends and family, who called him the "world's greatest uncle". In his spare time he loved to fish and spend time outdoors. He enjoyed watching NASCAR racing, but his favorite sport was football. He played it while he attended high school, and was an avid fan of the Atlanta Falcons.

Survivors include: his brother, Ronald Eric Griffin, Sr. (Teresa) of Franklin; nephew, Ronald Eric Griffin, Jr. of Carrollton; grandniece, Skyler Griffin of Franklin; and a number of other relatives and friends.
