Robert McGriff

Robert Lewis McGriff, the son of the late George “Man” McGriff and the late Eva Mae Williams was born March 8, 1956, in Decatur County, Georgia.  He confessed his life to Christ and joined the Rich Bay AME Church.  He attended public school in Gadsen County, FL. 

Robert was a quiet yet humble person who enjoyed being in nature.  Some of his hobbies included fishing, listening to old school R&B, watching his favorite shows, Westerns and Wrestling.  He truly enjoyed being around family and friends.  Robert would often reminisce about what it was like growing up in the Rich Bay community and the love he had for Christ.  His favorite past time was sitting under his shaded pine trees with his beloved dog Charlie. 

He leaves behind precious memories of his devoted daughter Sabrina Davis( Izale), stepson Jeffery Davis all of Cairo.  His siblings George McGriff Jr (Lessie), Mae D. Andrews; Havana, FL, Frank McGriff (Cathy); Sandra Seymore, Roy Jackson, Sharon McGriff all of Adel, GA; Charles E. McGriff, Ft. Pierce, FL; Donnie Seymore, TX; Lettie McGriff, Havana, FL; Juanita Bowen, New York; and a special cousin Earline Bryant, Attapulgus, GA and a host of nieces, nephew, cousins and friends.
