Phillip Grindstaff

1943 — January 1, 2021

Phillip Wayne Grindstaff, 78, of Midland, passed away Saturday, September 11, 2021 at Harris Hospice House in Charlotte.

Phillip was born June 24, 1943 in Tennessee to the late Glenn Grindstaff and the late Beulah Mae Grindstaff.  He was also preceded in death by his brothers, Clarence, and Clyde Grindstaff.

The family will receive friends from 11:00 am - 12:00 pm, Tuesday, September 14, 2021, at Hartsell Funeral Home in Concord. A Celebration of Phillip's life will follow at 12:00 pm in the Hartsell Funeral Home Chapel, officiated by Ronald Lee.  Burial will follow at Carolina Memorial Park.

Phillip was a loving husband, father and Pawpaw.  He was a friend to all who knew him. Born and raised in Bluff City TN, he moved to NC when he was 20. He became a top-notch auto painter by profession.  Phil loved to help people, but hated to ask for help ~ After retiring and even while sick he would make it a point to help his neighbors by mowing their grass or helping when he was able. During the Holidays, he would make it a priority to see that the all the children in his neighborhood (not just his own) had food and presents.  He loved Nascar, the lake, and cook-outs with friends and family.  He was not a man of many emotions or outward words, but he loved people and was deeply loved.

Survivors include wife, Peggy Sue Grindstaff; daughters, Robin Davis and Sheila (Kevin) Cero of Concord, NC.; grandchildren Maranda, Rebecca, Codie, Kaylee, Briana, and Dallas; and great grandchildren Hendrix, Ellie and one on the way.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Peggy Sue to assist with the funeral expenses.
