He was an amazing friend who was always willing to lend an ear or his time to whoever needed it. He was proud to be a union member with USW at Arconic and was previously a member of Local Union 25 Plumbers and Pipefitters. He loved coaching and being involved with his sons' sports teams, as he was their biggest fan.

Steven was preceded in death by his great-grandma, Delores Blodgett; grandma, Waltraud "Trudy" Reicks; aunts, Peggy Alatorre and Michelle Mulvehill; cousins, Alexandra Romero and Rodney Alatorre who was like an uncle to him and why Steven became a Steelers fan.
