Steve was a man who lived life to the fullest, and his personality was truly bigger than life. He had a compassionate heart and an unwavering sense of humor that brought joy to everyone around him. His ability to lighten the darkest of days and make others smile was a genuine gift that he shared generously throughout his life.His unwavering faith was a cornerstone of who he was.

His love for the Bible was reflected in the many favorite passages he held dear, serving as a guiding light through the seasons of his life.

In the heart of his family, Steve was a devoted husband to his wife, Jill. His compassion, unwavering support, and love will be greatly missed. His children, Shelly Richards and Seth (Rachel) Szbodi; grandchildren, Jeremy Richards Joey Richards, Cheyenne, Niya, and Thomas Szbodi; brother, Rick (Joy) Robinson; and many nieces, nephews, and cousins, will remember him as a beacon of light and laughter in their lives. No words can express how much he will be missed.
