Griffin, Harold Ray Sr., was reunited with his beloved bride and three children in heaven on Sunday, August 22, 2021 at 12:15 p.m.
A proud Army veteran, “Sarge” was a man of high honor and integrity. He dedicated his life to the service of others, especially his family.
Harold was the beloved husband of the late Phyllis (Velma) Griffin of 65 years; dearest father of the late Harold R. Griffin, the late Elizabeth Ann Gabbard and the late Cheryl Lynn (survived by Rick) Niewald; dear grandpa of Joshua (Jess), Haley, Aaron Geno, Michelle (J.P. Burcks) and Jennifer Niewald; great-grandpa of Evan, Ella, Makenzie, Ethan, Anthony, Sophia, Jerry Jr.; our dear brother of Jolene Rahaim, Janet Mitchell (nee Swanson) and the late Arthur (Eugene) Swanson; our dear brother-in-law, uncle, cousin and friend of many at Hazelwood Baptist Church.
He will be missed by everyone who knew him, and we’ll honor his memory for the rest of our lives. And we would be remiss not to mention his favorite vice: Alabama football. Roll Tide Roll.
Services: Visitation at Kutis South County Chapel 5255 Lemay Ferry Road Monday, August 30,2021, 10:30 am until service at 11:30 am. Interment Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery.
So very sad to hear about Uncle Harold. He was much loved and will always be remembered for those corny jokes he always had on hand. Still praying that the Lord will ease your pain.

Went to church with Harold for many years. His wife was my SS teacher.
Harold knew many things about Gods
Word. Loved to talk to him.
Sorry for your loss.

I enjoyed caring for Harold at St. Andrews of Bridgeton. He was such a sweetheart.

On Sunday morning when I would see Harold at the HBC 08:00 service, I would ask him how he was doing. He always told me “You’ll have to ask Phyllis, she’s the boss”. It was a privilege to attend his funeral and remember some HBC legacy.

I remember when I was a little girl and he was in the army, he would ride up on his motorcycle and my grandparents and mom and dad would be so happy. I barely knew who he was then. Later in life I loved his stories. Rest In Peace.
