Mary Griffiths passed away August 28, 2023 in Georgetown, TX. Born October 1, 1925 to Bina Eggers Fletcher and Walter Ferd Fletcher in Cove Creek, North Carolina, Mary grew up in Bristol, Tennessee. After graduating from Tennessee High School in Bristol, she lived many years in Fort Worth, Texas, where she worked at Convair (now Lockheed). When her son and daughter-in-law moved to the Houston area, Mary followed and made many life-long friends working as a secretary for an accounting firm, a mayor of Houston, and an oil field equipment supplier. She met the love of her life, Bob (Griff) Griffiths and they were married in August of 1981. Before Griff passed away in March of 1984, they travelled extensively and lived for a time in Japan and South Korea. After Griff's passing, she continued to travel with a devoted partner, William V. (Bill) Bennett.

Mary made many treasured friends in the competitive water-skiing community in the late 1960s and early 1970s and maintained those friendships for many years. Her closest friends were a group of fellow secretaries known as "The Whatever Club". After her retirement, she volunteered at her church assisting Alzheimer's patients at a caregivers' day out program and for the USO at Houston Intercontinental Airport.

Mary is preceded in death by her husband, Robert L. Griffiths, her mother and father, brother Jimmy F. Fletcher, son Donald W. Griffiths and grandson Robert A. Griffiths.
