Wonda “Chip” Hope Van Horn Griffin, 84, of Bridgeport departed this life on Wednesday, February 14, 2018. She was born in Clarksburg on July 17, 1933, a daughter of the late Harry Corbett and Pauline Mary (McGuire) Van Horn.
Surviving are her husband, Ernest Nile Griffin whom she married on May 3, 1958, one son, Scott Carlton Griffin; one daughter and son-in-law Sara and Jerry McDaniels of Boothsville; two grandchildren, Dustin Nile Evans and Julia Catherine McDaniels.
