Stephen was born on August 16, 1961 and graduated from St. John High School in 1979. He worked for many years as a mechanic at P&F Services and later working as a carpenter which he truly enjoyed.
Stephen was an avid hunter and gardener. He enjoyed lobster diving, fishing, skydiving, skiing, snowmobiling, and four wheeling. One of his many joys in life was having an activity for every season. He found pleasure in vacationing with his wife Tina and sister in-law, Sarah Ares & her husband Chad. In addition to his love for the outdoors, Stephen had a deep love for music and played the guitar for many years. A true “rocker” at heart.
Philanthropy came easy to Stephen as he always tried to help the homeless, providing food, shelter, and money. His family and friends will always remember him for his kind gentle heart and great sense of humor.
