Henry Bangert wrote a sympathy message

“Hello everyone, Henry Bangert here. I was saddened to hear of Col. Griggs passing. He was an inspirational man who had a huge impact on my family and my life. I attached a picture which captures the spirit of days gone by, but not forgotten. I will be in Colorado next week with my kids and grandkids and unable to attend the services. I offer my condolences, and greetings, to all of Lenny’s family, and best wishes for peace and healing in the days ahead.”
