Charles Ross "Ducky" Griffin

Mr. Charles Ross “Ducky” Griffin, 75, of Augusta, passed away Thursday, June 30, 2022.

Ducky was an avid sports fan of all types. He loved golf, his Atlanta Braves, the Atlanta Falcons, and most importantly the 2021 National Champions, the Georgia Bulldogs.

He was a very proud Army veteran serving in Vietnam. A diehard Patriot, he was a member of the American Legion Post 192 and the VFW Post 12190. He enjoyed his pets, BBQ’s, making his “Ducky Burgers”, and his Miller Lite.

Ducky never met a stranger and was known to venture on trips with his newly found “best friends”. He owned and operated Barnes Exterminating from 1978 until 2005. He was a member of N. A. Country Club / Jones Creek Country Club. Ducky will be missed for his well known “Duckyisms” such as “Coganeemashonatay”, “You ready to go”, “What is it”, “How bout them dawgs?”, and “Fill it up! Fill it up!”

He was predeceased in death by his parents, Titus and Nora Smith Griffin, his brothers: William, Harold, and Titus, Jr., and his grandson, Brantley James Griffin.

He is survived by his wife of 37 years, Sandra H. Griffin, sons: Chad (Emily) Griffin and Matthew (Mandy) Griffin, and their mother Barbara; daughter: Wendy (Chris) Cook; grandchildren: Morgan, Carson, Lauren-Kate, Peyton, and Paige; a special niece, Wyndee Leigh (Matt) Boyd, and many other nieces and nephews.
