December 28, 1943 – February 12, 2026

Stephen was a connoisseur of fast cars, boats, and cigars. He was an avid reader and dog walker, and he found pleasure in music, as well. Stephen and Susan enjoyed travel, but their hearts were most content on the water.

Surviving Stephen are his wife, Susan of Lakeland, Florida, and their beloved dog, Buster, his son, David of Hangzhou, China, his son, Kent and partner Erin Bailey of Tampa, Florida, his son, Kinzie and wife Darcy of Bentonville, Arkansas, his son Kevin and wife Kristen of Winter Park, Florida, as well as six grandchildren; Shane, Jackson, Grayson, Patrick, Daphne, and Bella.

Family and friends are invited to gather from 2:00-4:00 pm for a Celebration of Life held at Christina Hammock Clubhouse, 6520 Lake Clark Drive, Lakeland, FL 33813, for Stephen on Saturday, March 7, 2026. Our hope is that all who knew and loved him will reflect upon their memories of Steve by sharing them with others.
