After replacing `define-key' with `keymap-set' I got following:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "[8388710] is not a valid key definition; see ‘key-valid-p’")
  signal(error ("[8388710] is not a valid key definition; see ‘key-..."))
  error("%S is not a valid key definition; see `key-valid-p..." [8388710])
  keymap--check([8388710])

for this definition:

(keymap-set dired-mode-map (kbd "s-f") 'cf-file-for-person)

So how I am supposed to make it work? I need to use the super key and
F to file files under person's directory.
