I worked with Steve at Meijer for many years. He was a hard worker, great leader and just an all around great man!
I am a better person because of Steve!
My thoughts are with all of Steve's family during this difficult time!

Stephen R. (Steve) Nentrup died Jan. 11, 2017 In Indianapolis. He was born May 12, 1947 in Columbus, Indiana and grew up in Shelbyville, Indiana. His parents, Anna E. and William E. Nentrup who are deceased, provided him the quintessential life of a child who grew up in the 50’s and 60’s.
Steve graduated from Shelbyville High School in 1965, served in the Army from 1966-1969, and graduated from Purdue University in 1974. His professional career was retail management, working for J.C. Penney and Meijer. He also operated a small business “Treats” in the late 80’s.
Steve was a kind, caring man who had a passion for reading, politics and history. He supported peace and social justice issues. He will be deeply missed by his life partner, Sarah E. Bowers; daughter, Stephanie L. Nentrup, Indianapolis; son, Craig W. (Lindsay Gerling-Nentrup) Nentrup; grandchildren, Eric, Emily, Alexander and Parker Guy and Gemma Nentrup; and sister, Susan J.
