RIP. Today is 20210301.
From Terry Griggs. “A Memorial Service for Rae Hinson Griggs will be March 13 (Saturday) at 1 p.m. at Enon Chapel Baptist Church at 101 Barbara Avenue, Midway Park, NC. Services will be conducted by Dr. Jim Kelley, minister. Entombment will be at the Coastal Carolina State Veterans Cemetary at 110 Montford Landing Road, Jacksonville, NC at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Baptist Children’s Homes of NC, PO Box 338, Thomasville,NC 27361 or KLove.Radio Network, PO Box 2098, Omaha, NE 68103”
“This morning, Rae Hinson Griggs, finished the marathon called life. She was 65. She retired after 24 years civil service in 2018. Mostly with the Naval Hospitals at Camp Lejeune & Okinawa, Japan. Her favorite and most important job was being a mother to our two daughters and a Baba to our six grandchildren. Each year we would plan a new adventure for our six grandchildren during the summer. We called this “Cousin’s Camp” and this is a tradition that will be carried on, and will be one of her greatest legacies. She will be deeply missed by so many. I am thankful for our marriage and to have been together for more than 42 years. She may not have been a Marine, but she was a Marine’s Wife who lived up to our motto “Semper Fidelis” (Always Faithful). She played a major role in my success as a career Marine. I love her more than I can express & will miss her greatly.”
