Teri Griffin

Eastern Wyoming College is saddened to share the passing of long-time employee Teri Griffin, on Friday, June 15. She was the Douglas Adult Learning Center Coordinator.

“Teri was truly unique and her students adored her.  She had a very strong connection with our students working on their high school equivalency and worked very hard at encouraging her students.  Her commitment to EWC and her students will be missed,” stated Dr. Lesley Travers, President.

Ms. Griffin taught at EWC for eight years. She was very active and involved in the community where she served for years on the Wyoming State Fair Parade, was a member of the Lions Club and actively involved in the Boys and Girls Club.

“She was my right arm,” shared Diane McQueen, Director of Adult Education. “We planned everything together. So many loved her and her students are devastated. She was the best teacher and will be irreplaceable.”

The EWC Douglas Campus will be closed Thursday afternoon, June 21, so that employees may attend the funeral services.
