Steven “Steve” Larson, age 71 of Inver Grove Heights, formerly Minneapolis, passed away November 26, 2020.

Steven Robert Larson was born August 24, 1949 in Minneapolis to Robert and Anne Larson and later graduated from Patrick Henry High School in 1968.  He was an avid Minnesota Twins fan and enjoyed going on various “bus excursions” through the years.  He enjoyed being a part of family dinners and would have been the one enjoying a drumstick and blueberry pie on Thanksgiving.  He loved chocolate Kisses, Mountain Dew and potato chips.  He had a pleasant, fun loving personality and will be missed by his family.

He is preceded in death by his parents Robert and Anne and brother-in-law Lonny.  Steve is survived by his siblings Linda (Ron) Mlynek, Vernon “Mick” Larson, Janet Ambright as well as many nieces and nephews.

The family would like to personally thank Shari with Olive Grove Hospice for her compassion and kindness as well as Jesse and Matt at Inver Grove White Pines for their personal care and commitment to our Steve.
