John Thomas Griffin, 66 of Pineville, entered eternal rest on Sunday, June 7, 2026.

He loved spending time outdoors, especially fishing, and treasured every moment with his family. Whether on the water or gathered with loved ones, he found his greatest joy in creating memories with those he cared about most. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Samuel and Nettie Viola Griffin; and two brothers, Samuel Griffin and Bobby Griffin.

Those left to mourn his loss and cherish his memory include one brother, James Griffin (Starr); two sisters, Rebecca Devore and Jennifer Beaudin (Richard); and numerous nieces and nephews.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to Kellie’s Sitting Service and Compassionate Care Hospice for the exceptional care, kindness, and support they provided. Their dedication and compassion brought comfort to both him and his loved ones during a difficult time and will always be deeply appreciated.

All funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Rush Funeral Home, Pineville, LA.
