Bobby Griffin Memorial

Bobby Griffin Art Scholarship

Keeping His Memory Alive

Thanks to the South Pasadena High School Alumni Association for all their hard work and management of the multiple Scholarship Awards presented annually at South Pasadena High School to deserving students.

One of the many Awards at South Pasadena School is the Bobby Griffin Art Scholarship.

The Award in the amount of $500 recognizes a graduating senior at South Pasadena High School with a talent and interest in pursuing Art as a Career.

Bobby Griffin who this award was created for by his family grew up South Pasadena and attended school in South Pasadena from K-12th grade. Bob was a gifted, talented athlete, artist, writer, photographer and lived his short life to the fullest making every second, minute, hour count. Bob graduated from So Pas HS in 1972 and was Awarded the Bank of America Art Scholarship and pursued his career aspiration to be an Artist at the University California Santa Barbara. Unfortunately Bob's life was cut short in 1973 during his Freshman year at UCSB. Bob and his roomate Mike Hillbloom left us in March of 1973 in a small plane crash in the mountains above Newhall, CA. Bob was in route to attend his grandfather's Funeral. His untimely death left a lasting impression on many. What it left was live your life to the fullest, follow your dreams and don't waste a second, minute.
