Garfield Grinton Obituary

We bid farewell to Garfield Grinton of Winston Salem, North Carolina, born in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina, whose journey of life gracefully concluded on February 17, 2026 at the age of 88. Garfield touched countless lives with warmth and kindness, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever echo in hearts. Family and friends are welcome to send flowers or leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.

As we bid Garfield farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Garfield is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

He was predeceased by: his mother Beulah Grinton; and his son Kenneth Grinton. He is survived by: his children, Bertha Mitchell (Joseph), Bricella Grinton, Ivory Joe Grinton and Marthaiel Grinton, Sr. (Montrea); and his friend Hazel Blackmon.
