Orloff was given a heart cancer diagnosis in February of 2024. He’d been suffering from the state since, which had a negative impact on his health. In a grotesquely funny November 5 Facebook post, he wrote,” I give the experience of remedies and scans and doctors and testing two hands down.” I’ve read that tobacco is bad for you because I’ve seen that many people have it worse than I do. I wish I knew that before. I quit never quickly enough-8 years ago. Oh well”, he added.
The news of the 71-year-old’s dying led to responses from sports enthusiasts who generally expressed condolences.
” RIP Steve …heard the tribute from your CBS guys… The kind of guy I’d have spent time watching silly sports with while also drinking a beer. God speed, sleep well and peacefully ❤ ️” read one tribute comment.
