Steve worked for Teamster Local 89 as a car hauler for Active Transportation (Jack Cooper). He served his country with the United States Marine Corp (SEMPER FI). His passion all his life was restoring old cars and going to car cruises. He enjoyed most sports but was a huge Kentucky Basketball and NASCAR (Earnhardt) fan. He was a cancer survivor for 11 years. He enjoyed his retirement spending time with his family and his cats. His favorite shows were MASH, Big Bang Theory and FOX News. In his younger years, Steve loved to work on cars and race cars and always had that passion up until he retired. He was one of a kind and had a big heart!
