Harold "Skip" Steinbaugh Obituary
a legacy defined by hard work, service, and love for his family.
In 1992, Skip founded Commercial Specialty, a business he proudly built and operated alongside his son, Michael. Through his dedication and vision, the company became a lasting success-one that continues to reflect his values of integrity and commitment.
Skip was also a proud Vietnam Veteran who served his country with honor. His sense of duty and strength of character carried through every aspect of his life.
He is survived by his beloved wife of 58 years, Patricia Steinbaugh; his children Tracy Padilla (Jason) and Michael Steinbaugh (Tiffany); and his cherished grandchildren: Logan Padilla (Lexy), Lucas Padilla, Michael Steinbaugh Jr., and Wesley Steinbaugh. He is also survived by his loving sisters, Carol Sceranka of Roseville and Renee Madrid of Texas.
A private interment will be held. A Celebration of Life will take place on August 2, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at Commercial Specialty, 1435 Academy Street, Lodi, CA 95240.
Please join us in remembering and celebrating Skip's life.
