Patricia Chambers Griffin, age 75, of Baldwin, Georgia, passed away peacefully at her residence on Friday, January 10, 2025, surrounded by her family.
Mrs. Griffin was born on October 11, 1949, in Habersham County, Georgia. For 50 years, Patricia was a dedicated hairdresser and owner of Baldwin Styling. Her gentle spirit extended beyond her work as a hairdresser, as her heart was always focused on serving others. Even during her own battle with illness, she never lost sight of others’ needs, always concerned for their well-being above her own. Patricia’s family was the center of her world and she found joy cooking meals and gathering her loved ones around the dinner table. Outside of her home, Patricia enjoyed spending time working in her yard, taking pride in her beautiful garden, as well as taking trips camping. Patricia was a member of Baldwin Baptist Church. In addition to being a loving wife, mother, daughter, sister, grandmother and great-grandmother, she will be remembered by many as “Mama T” and “Mama Trish”.
She was preceded in death by her father, Delmar Chambers; bonus-dad, Nelson W. Lewallen; and her grandparents, Jim and Myrtle Addis; Jim and Minnie Chambers; and Jim and Madge Lewallen.
