Steve Griffith was a 1983 graduate of
Worthington High School. He ran cross
country under the guidance of coaches Gary
Smith and Wayne Harvey. He was proud to
have participated with the Worthington
Field Studies summer trip. In fact, he was
so impressed with his experience with Field
Studies that he encouraged his brother Tom,
a 1990 Worthington graduate, to participate
as well.
Steve worked summers and breaks during
college for the Worthington Parks and
Recreation Department. After Steve
graduated from high school in 1983, he went
on to study Graphic Design at Bowling Green
State University where he met his fiancee
Susan (Walters) Hisch. Steve became
employed by Good Display in Toledo, Ohio
prior to earning his college degree.
Sadly, Steve was killed in a car accident
on February 19, 1988. This year marks the
20 year anniversary of his death.
In honor of his memory, his family would
like to accept contributions for a
scholarship fund through Worthington Field
Studies. Any money collected will go
directly toward the cost of the trip.
