Allen Vincent Griffin, 65, of North Little Rock, Arkansas went to be with the Lord on December 20, 2016.
He is survived by his two sons, Ryan (Sarah) Griffin and Vincent (Michael) Griffin; four grandchildren; two brothers, Norman and Bill and one sister, Georgia Kay; and many cousins.
He is preceded in death by his loving wife, Brenda Griffin; his parents, Lillian and Elmer Griffin and four brothers, Clyde, L.E., Bobby Joe, Doug and one sister, Brenda.
He proudly served in the Navy and worked for Carlton Bates for several years. He was best known for being the life of the party and generally the best cook in the bunch, at least when it came to using a grill! He truly loved his life because of all the great family and friends that he was able to share it with.
Memorial Services will be held Tuesday, January 10, 2017 at 1:00 p.m., located in North Little Rock at the Arkansas State Veterans Cemetery. After the service we invite you back to his home where family and friends can join in honoring his life.
