Steven belonged to the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 153 for many years. In his spare time, Steven enjoyed scuba diving with his wife in many exotic locations, and underwater photography. His love for scuba diving allowed him to serve as an assistant dive instructor for J.R. Aquatics. Later in his life, he found a deep appreciation for nature, especially boating, spending time at the lake, and playing golf. Memorial donations may be given to the American Cancer Society in Steven's memory.
