Leroy Griffin - Burned to Death

(front center)

Griffin’s death in September 1966 will forever remain mysterious. It seems that he and a work colleague had an altercation at a Koppers coke plant where Griffin still occasionally laboured to earn a living. Horrifically, Griffin either fell or was pushed into one of the factory’s giant furnaces, where he was quickly burned to death.

Leroy Griffin born April 5, 1934, died September 1, 1966
