Our beloved Steven John Thompson, has left us too soon on June 4, 2024, at his home in North Branch.  He was born on February 17, 1967, to Philip and Joan Thompson in Owatonna, Minnesota, He graduated from Owatonna High School and went on to excel in both finance and medicine, graduating from the University of Minnesota with degrees in both fields.

Steven was a dedicated professional in the medical field, having worked with prestigious organizations like Mayo Health Systems, Fairview Health Systems, and most recently serving as Medical Director of Inpatient Management for Optum Healthcare Company. He was a respected member of the American Medical Association and various medical associations, always committed to providing the best care possible to those in need.

On November 4, 2011, Steven married his loving husband, Bradley Larson, and together they shared a life filled with love, laughter, and countless memories. He was a devoted father to Grace, Jay, and Kristin, and a proud grandfather to Parker.

Outside of his work, Steven had a zest for life. He was a passionate traveler and enjoyed creating his own wine. Social gatherings at his home were always warm and inviting, filled with laughter and love. Steven's cooking skills were unmatched, with his spaghetti and cheesecake being fan favorites among family and friends.

Steven's infectious spirit and warm heart will be deeply missed by all who were fortunate enough to know him. He cherished moments spent with his fur baby, Gizmo, and loved nothing more than relaxing by a campfire surrounded by his loved ones.
