Obituary for Marie L Griffin (Aikens)

Former Woodbine Avenue resident Marie L. Griffin passed away peacefully in the arms of her daughter, Teresa, at 2:36 a.m. Sunday morning, April 9, 2017, at East Liverpool City Hospital. She was 84.

A daughter of the late Charles Aikens and Josephine Ewing Aikens Campa, she was born on January 25, 1933 in Apollo, PA. Her family came to this area when she was a young girl and made their home in Pleasant Heights.

On April 15, 1949, she married George A. Griffin, who died on November 19, 2003. Marie was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother who loved music, especially Elvis. But her family was her life.

Marie spent over 25 years working as a collator at National Church Envelope Supply, retiring in 1985. She attended Assembly of God Church and also belonged to a Bible Study at one time.

Surviving are her children: Teresa Beadnell and her husband, Michael, of East Liverpool; Richard A. Griffin and his wife, Sandra, also of East Liverpool; Edward L. Griffin and his wife, Esther, of Tucson, AZ; Janet Dorow and her husband, Paul, of Charlotte, NC; and Rhonda Roberts, her ardent friend and caregiver. There are ten grandchildren: Christina, Danielle, Bobby, Brandy, Georgie, Denise, Debbie, Stacey, Brian and Tiffany, and eighteen great-grandchildren.

A sister, Betty French of California, and two brothers, Tom Aikens and his wife, Ruth, of Pennsylvania and David Aikens and his wife, Wanda, of Michigan, also survive, along with numerous nieces and nephews.

In addition to her parents and her husband, Marie was preceded in death by a son, Daniel Griffin, and by a grandson, Jonathan Griffin.

Friends may visit at the Dawson Funeral Home on Wednesday, where the family will be present from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m.

Pastor Tom Schneidmiller of Grace Bible Church will conduct a funeral service at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday at the funeral home. Marie will be laid to rest beside her husband at Columbiana County Memorial Park, followed by a continued time of fellowship at the Dawson Family Center.
