Maxine Griggs, lifelong Bartlesville resident, passed away Tuesday, Dec. 11, 2018. She was blessed with a large and loving family who will miss her greatly.

Maxine was a full-time homemaker, caring for her family. She enjoyed crocheting, playing video games and baking delicious cakes and pies. To say the least, she was an avid OU football fan.

She was blessed with 10 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren, numerous nieces and nephews, and many friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband of 50 years Freddie, daughter Dixie Griggs and sister Sue Colee.
