It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Teddy Griffith, after a courageous battle with cancer. Teddy passed away at home on May 26, 2019 in the arms of his loving wife of 36 years, and best friend, Kerrie (nee Richard). He was the beloved and proud father of Adam. He will be missed by his faithful companion Bear. Teddy is predeceased by his parents Ashton and Freda Griffith. Survived by his brothers Johnny (Marilyn), Jimmy (Debra), George (Brenda) and his sister Judy (Gary). He will be deeply missed by his mother-in-law Catherine O’Toole (the late Eric Richard), sister-in-law Sharon Godkin (the late Ron) and brother-in-law Brian Richard (Ann).
