Darrell Glenn Griffin, age 54 of Jacksboro, passed away on Tuesday, June 18, 2019 at his residence. He was of the Baptist faith. He was born and raised in Knoxville, TN and played the drums in a gospel band called The Midstate Boys with his father and brothers. They travelled all over the country serving the Lord. His hobbies included going to the beach, boating on the lake, cooking out with family and friends, working on cars, and quoting the "Friday movies". He worked at several companies as an HVAC installer, but the one he worked at the longest was Kalthoff Mechanical. Darrell was a kind man, who would help anyone he could.
