Obituary of Samuel G. Griner 
as written in "The Camilla Enterprise" dated 3 Feb 1933.  


Camilla, Georgia.  Mr. Sam Griner, a former citizen of Mitchell county but who 
for the past several years had been making his home in Winter Haven, Fla., died suddenly 
Sunday, 29 Jan 1933, morning following a heart attack.  The news of his death when 
received here brought sorrow to many relatives and life-long friends.  Mr. Griner had had 
a slight attack a day or two before, but his family had not been alarmed about his 
condition until he suffered a more serious attack Saturday night. He died a few hours later 
in spite of every effort that could be employed to bring him relief.  Mr. Griner was 65 
years of age.  He was born and reared in this county, the son of the late Jasper Griner, a 
pioneer citizen of Mitchell county.  Surviving the deceased are his widow, two sons and a 
daughter, Messrs. A. J. and Paul Griner and Miss Ruby Griner, all of Winter Haven.  He 
is also survived by one brother, Mr. C. G. Griner, and two sisters, Mrs. T. W. Curles and 
Miss Eliza Luckey, of this county.  There is also a wide family connection.  The remains 
were brought to Camilla Tuesday night from Winter Haven and carried to the home of 
Mrs. T. W. Curles to remain until the hour for the funeral.  Services were held at Mt. 
Zion Baptist church Thursday, 2 Feb 1933, at 2:00 PM conducted by Rev H. N. Burnett.  
After services at the church the Masons took charge and the remains were laid to rest in 
the family lot in Mt. Zion cemetery with Masonic honors.  The Enterprise joins many 
friends in extending sympathy to the bereaved family.
