Sandra Griffin Obituary

Sandra L. Griffin

Sandy Griffin died Wednesday, March 22, 2023, at Willows in Tiffin.

She was born July 19, 1939, in Tiffin, to James and Mary (Slemmer) Williams. She attended several schools in California and Florida, as her father was in the service. She graduated from high school in Upper Sandusky.

Sandy attended Tiffin University where she met her husband, Wayne. They were married Nov. 6, 1960. They had three daughters, Lisa (Mike McClellan), Gayla Griffin (deceased) and Rachelle Griffin, all of Tiffin. Sandy had five grandchildren, Erin Conti of Tiffin, McKenna Gaietto of California, Keegan (Aly) Hall of North Canton, Claire McClellan of Tiffin, and Abrie Smith of Willoughby. She also had three great-grandchildren, Griffin and Bishop Kisabeth of Tiffin, and Roman Hall of North Canton.

Sandy worked as a sales person for Sara Coventry Jewelry for 13 years, rising to the level of Regional Manager. She traveled and spoke at company meeting in such places as Las Vegas, Nevada, and San Diego, California. She later left the company to spend more time with her family. Sandy returned to sales where she worked with her husband and later retired from Wayne Griffin Reality. She was known for her love of dogs, antiques, art, jewelry, and travel with her husband.

The family wants to thank the entire staff at the Willows for their very kind care of Sandy during her two-year stay at their facility.
