Born in Homeland, GA his parents were Perry Griffin and Marjorie Geneva Crews Griffin. He is also preceded in death by 5 siblings, Janelle G. Simpson, Linda Gail, Norma Jean Griffin, and Mannan Griffin.
Bobby retired from LCP Chemicals and was a multi craft who could build most anything. He also flagged races for 23 ½ years. While flagging, he black flagged his wife, Burniece when she won the powder puff race and even blacked flagged the owner of the track, Lewie Rodney and was fired after that. Bobby really loved to go to the races especially to see all his friends and was a big teaser who loved to pick on people. His biggest love was his grandkids, they were his heart.
