RIP, Sergeant.
Requiescat in pace, Sergeant Griffin
Centralia, Missouri’s population was 3523 in 1970 and 4027 in 2010. No doubt everybody knows everyone else, one way or another, in Centralia. Rodney L. Griffin
is finally home but not alone. The tiny town of Centralia never forgot him and held a memorial service in the local high school upon his return. He was last there in 1968 when he graduated from Centralia High. He married his high school sweetheart and then went off to war. He was the fourth and final son of Centralia to Fall in Vietnam. Three were soldiers, one a Marine, and none ever saw age 25.
Welcome home, Griff. Centralia has been waiting for you.
Rest in Peace, Brother. Welcome home.
Welcome home and rest well.
Thank you for your service, Sergeant. Requiescat In Pace.
Semper Fidelis.
Rest In Peace Fallen Warrior, Welcome Home.
Rest Well. Welcome Home…..

1. We do this because IT matters!
