Mrs. Grigg was a wonderful friend and neighbor to our family - we will never forget all her thoughtfulness and her caring ways. We stopped by in Sept. when we were in Suffolk for Cliff's class reunion and had a wonderful visit catching up Suffolk folks and news. May your wonderful memories be a comfort - she was such a giving and lovely lady. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
