First time we met…I was snowmobiling behind an unmistakably “Olympic” Jacket. “OMG, Steve, you’re the first Olympiad I ever met”, I was so impressed. Later, we had a cabin at his resort and he could have been an Olympic waterskier too!
He was bigger than life.
I’m sad he was taken so young😢
I’m so sorry to hear of Steve’s passing, I met him 40 years ago, and always loved his funny, witty personality. He will be missed. My condolences to your family.
My sincere condolences to Steves family. He was so much fun to be with and always made everyone smile. Great to watch him play hockey at H-M and for the Gophers! Later good times at Dellwood! He was the life of the party! May his soul and all the souls of the faithfully departed through the Mercy of God Rest In Peace. ❤️🙏🏒
Griff you will surely be missed the your smile and quick wit from younger years of playing hockey against each other God bless till we meet again ☘️🏒🇺🇸🙏🏼
Griffith family,

Much love and hugs,
Julie Vick
Love you and remember all of our wonderful and fun times we shared. You are so special to so many..love Bob and Mary Lou & family.
We will be greatly missed Mr. F.U.N! You definitely knew how to make people laugh and we will miss you! Maybe you and my dad are doing a shot of blackberry brandy in heaven. 😢
Steve, I didn’t know you for but a few short years. I enjoyed every minute we spent together. Whether as a co-worker or competitor you always played fairly. You will be missed.
