Not sure what to say?

When I first Met Steve, we were classmates at OSU-HSC. Over the next several years of very stressful and at times painful education, Steve earned the respect of his classmates and was overwhelmingly voted President of the senior class. He was a mentor to many of us, and an example to all of us. His quiet leadership will be missed by us all. The osteopathic medical community extends their heartfelt condolences to the family.

The world has lost a truly great and remarkable man. He was kind, compassionate and a caring human being and treated each patient as though they were a member of his family. His passing leaves a void in many people's lives and hearts. If there is a positive to be gained from his passing it is that he is now reunited with Kay! It is with a heavy heart that I say Good-bye dear friend.

No words to describe my love for this man. He was more than our dr. He was a friend and always had a special way with fixing us! ❤❤❤ I will forever miss him.

I remember Steve as Carole's younger brother, bugging us as we played, then on through High School, and then becoming a good man and Dr. He was always ready with a smile & hug when he saw me. He doctored my mother. He will be missed by many.

Steve brought my children into this world and was our Dr. for many years until he went into emergency medicine. He was thoughtful, compassionate, and beyond competent. He became a friend. He always made time to listen, no matter how busy the office was. God bless the family ♥

Dr. Grigsby was a wonderful man and could make you feel so good with a big bear hug.

My thoughts and prayers are with Kay and the Grigsby family. Steve and Kay were always the perfect couple and I know the future will be much dimmer, without Steve in it. Love to all of you.

My condolences to the family. Dr Grigsby was my Dr. for many years. He will be greatly missed.

Dr. Grigsby was a Great Man and Great Dr. and will be missed by so many. He cared about his patients and you knew he did.. I had the privilege of working with him when I was in the Medical Staff Office. May God Bless this Family and give them Peace and Comfort.
