He cherished spending time with his family, particularly enjoying moments spent fishing and sharing Patti's homemade cooking; especially her ice cream. His favorite place in the world was his home on the farm, where he found joy in the simple pleasures of life. Steve's two daughters, Dani and Kelli, were his proudest accomplishments, and he delighted in sharing a beer with good friends and those he loved.
Steve Griffith will be deeply missed by all who knew him and remembered for his kindness, competitive spirit, and the love he shared with his family and friends.
