Obituary

Warren K. Griffith, age 82 of Neenah, passed away early Saturday, March 26, 2022. He was born April 30, 1939 to the late E. Miles and Marcella Griffith in Racine, WI, and married Deborah Smith on June 17, 1961 in Hammond, IN.

Warren was a proud graduate of Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute, IN, after which he served for two years in the US Army Corps of Engineers in Fort Belvoir, VA. After retiring as a Captain, Warren worked for almost 50 years for Kimberly-Clark in various positions. His employment led him to Hendersonville, NC; Sylacauga, AL; and Roswell, GA; each place gaining him lifelong friends. He and his family always returned to Neenah where he was an active member of First Presbyterian Church.

A man devoted to his family, Warren leaves behind his wife of 60 years, Debbie; his children: Tony (Jessica) Griffith; Laura (Abraham) Griffith; and Kevin (Jennifer) Griffith; as well as his grandchildren: David, Jesse, William, Willa, Jack, Cedar, and Sophie.

A memorial service for Warren will be held at 11:30 A.M. on Saturday, April 2, 2022 at First Presbyterian Church, 200 S. Church St., Neenah, Rev. Richard Moore officiating. A visitation will be held at church from 10:00 A.M. until the hour of service.

My late father, Nathan, became close to Warren during their time as colleagues @ KC-Roswell, as well as Neenah & through their church membership. I'll remember your "dad" as generous and kind, offering his services to Nate after my mother had passed while in residence at the nursing home. My father thought the world of him! My sympathy, Chuck W.

Debbie, Tony, Laura, Kevin, and families, you are in our thoughts today as you go through this difficult time. We are remembering how much Elsie enjoyed the family reunion in Michigan, and how she talked about Warren being so concerned about her. She said he made sure she was always taken care of, and was such a nice and thoughtful man. She had wonderful memories of that time together. Charles remembers his time visiting in Neenah with Lorraine, so many years ago, and Warren taking him on a long drive around the lake. Again, the words describing Warren are 'such a nice guy.' Blessings and sympathy to all of you. Charles, Robin, and Levi

Don and I extend our sympathy to the whole family. We were sad to hear of your loss. Remembering Warren as our good neighbor on Berkeley Dr. Unfortunately, we were not able to extend our condolences in person on Saturday.

Sorry to be late with this, but I just heard of Warren’s passing. I met Warren professionally while he and Debbie were in Sylacauga, and later we became personal friends. While we kept up with each other periodically, I’m sorry to say contact became infrequent over the years. I think the last time we saw each other was when Wisconsin played in a bowl game in Birmingham. We last spoke about three years ago, but I’m not sure he remembered me. I always enjoyed his company, and am sure he is sorely missed. My sincere condolences to Debbie.
