When Dan Rylance wrote a history about him for the Herald long ago, he said of all the early “boomers” Griggs was the most deserving of the title – “Father of Grand Forks.” ....

Lonnie Laffen, a co-founder of JLG Architects and a former Grand Forks state senator, died Wednesday night after a heart attack at age 62.

“He was an extremely hard worker and very dedicated to what he believed in,” said Sen. Ray Holmberg, R-Grand Forks. “He was well-liked, a prince of a guy amongst the legislators.”
Holmberg said Laffen was “very oriented toward business development and economic growth” during his time in the Legislature. Laffen, a Republican, was elected to the Senate in 2010 and served there until 2018, when he lost reelection. ....
