In 1971, Steve and Beverley moved to Woodinville, WA, where Steve continued his engineering work. Their family grew with the birth of their son Randy in March 1978. Steve was a brilliant and hardworking man, known for his ability to fix anything and his knack for picking up new skills with ease. His love for the outdoors was evident in his passion for hunting, fishing, and spending time at their Chelan property, where he personally undertook most of the work.

Steve is survived by his beloved wife Beverley, his daughter Michele (David), his sons Doug (Leann) and Randy (Laura), seven grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren. His legacy as a wonderful husband, father, friend, and neighbor will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
