The highlights of his long career were working at Spartan Way in Rhinelander and Ned Kelly's Pub in Green Bay. He was a very hard worker, never complained, and never called in sick. Upon moving to Green Bay in 2002, Steve's parents were moved into assisted living and Steve moved in with his brother James', family. After a short while, Steve gained his independence and moved into his own apartment in Villa West and lastly moved into his home on Badger Lane. Steve loved all things red and maintaining his vehicles. He enjoyed driving downtown while listening to music and sometimes parking to "people watch". Steve would drive by family members homes just to "check on them". His family really appreciated it. Steve also enjoyed cats; adopting three cats in his life--Keke, Kitty, and Tiger. In his younger days, Steve also enjoyed boating in the summer and snowmobiling in the winter. Steve is survived by his aunt Joey John; cousins, Suzy and Tim; 2 brothers, James and Joel; and many loving nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.
