Steve was a devoted father, husband, and friend. Steve followed in his father’s footsteps and became a firefighter in 2004. He was hired full time in 2007 at Springdale Fire District. During his career in the fire service, Steve met many milestones and was very proud of his service. Steve worked as a full time firefighter until 2017 when he went back to work full time as an attorney where he continued to serve fellow first responders with his law practice catering to the needs of first responders. In addition, he was a well-respected member of the legal community in St. Louis and also served as Guardian Ad Litem at the Saint Louis County Family Court for nearly 20 years. Steve was a proud supporter of The Backstoppers. He was a selfless man even in his death through the donation of his eye tissue to give sight to others.
The celebration of life will be held from 1-5 pm on Saturday, June 29 at Parkway United Church of Christ, 2841 North Ballas Road, 63131. The Firefighter Bell Service will begin promptly at 2:00 with a reception to follow.

I will say prayers for Steve and his family, that they may have strength and belief in such trying times.
May he Rest In Peace and May our dear Lord bring comfort to all who love him and miss him terribly.
Steve was such a generous and kind person to my daughter Kristen who worked for him. He did so much to help her personally and professionally and I am so grateful. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
I went to Mehlville with Steve he would drive me home after school in his Corvette is one of my favorite memories of him. When I lost my dad over a year ago he took on my father’s estate for me. I remembered he lost his dad years ago as well. Last I saw him was at court and I wish he would of told me about his cancer. My sincere condolences to his wife and kids. I am so sorry and I pray for God to wrap his arms around his family during this difficult time. There are truly no words that can bring complete comfort to the family however, he did contribute goodness for a lot of people while he was here. God bless you Laura, Robert and Jeannette…. much love to you on this day and for days to come. ?? ?? RIP Steve
