Remembering Floyd McCreight

A Life Well Lived on the Water and Beyond
A Life Well Lived on the Water and Beyond

The Aquaplex and the entire ski community are heartbroken by the loss of Floyd McCreight. To know Floyd was to love him. He wasn’t just a skier—he was a lifelong ambassador of the sport, a mentor, and a friend to all who crossed his wake.

 

Floyd’s passion for waterskiing ran as deep as the lakes he loved. Whether he was carving glassy waters at sunrise, coaching a newcomer with endless patience, or swapping stories on the dock, his joy was infectious. He believed that skiing wasn’t just a sport—it was a way to connect, to challenge oneself, and to build lifelong friendships.

 

But Floyd was more than an athlete. He was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather, always putting family first. He led with kindness, lived with integrity, and left a legacy of love. His laughter echoed across the water, and his wisdom guided so many in the ski community and beyond.

 

As we remember Floyd, we invite you to share your favorite story or memory of him. Whether it was a perfect set, a lesson he taught, or simply a moment of laughter by the lake, his spirit lives on in each of us.
