Beloved Husband of Georgann Griffin
"I journeyed to the rainbows end and found not gold, but you my friend." author unknown
We will miss you.
Please keep Georgann Griffin and her family in your prayers through the coming days. Georgann is the Co State Director of Missouri and was instrumental in rescuing all of those poor little HSMO puppy mill dogs. Georgann worked to help all of those baby's in spite of knowing that she had very little time left with her husband Floyd who was diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer. He was told a few weeks ago that he had very little time left. During that period he told us that he wanted his friends and family to please not send flowers but to please make a donation to YTNR's general fund in his memory. He asked that at the funeral a card be given out with our name and address on it. He didn't want flowers he wanted to support the beloved yorkies that he and his wife have been helping for many years.
For those of you wishing to donate even the smallest amount in his memory please send a donation either through our pay pal account
