Arensberg-Pruett Funeral Home Obituary


Steven Kent Andre, age 73, of Atchison, KS, died Wednesday, October 9, 2024, surrounded by his loved ones. 


Steve was born on August 5, 1951, in St. Joseph, MO, the son of the late John Harold Andre and Donna Jane (Witty) Andre. He attended public schools in Atchison, graduating from Atchison High School. 


Steve and the former Marilyn Miner were united in marriage on December 11, 1970, at the Denton United Methodist Church, sharing nearly fifty-four years of marriage. 


He served his country in the United States Army from April 28, 1971, until his honorable discharge on October 6, 1972. He retired from Whiteman AFB as the Print Shop Manager, but by far his most rewarding job was his time as an EMT and working the Ambulance Service with his dad, John. He enjoyed time with family and especially attending his grandchildren’s many events and cheering them on. Some of his favorite pastimes were duck hunting and fishing.


He is survived by his wife, Marilyn Andre; his two daughters, Stacey (Tim) Bell; Tonya (Jody Servaes) Andre; three brothers, Todd (Debbie) Andre, Mike (Pam) Andre, Bill (Shelly) Andre; his four greatest joys, his grandchildren, Paige (Gavin) Trexler, McKenzi Bell, Skylar Bell, Landen Bell; and his two great grandchildren, Wrenley Rae Trexler and Whitten Kent Trexler. 


Steve’s life will be celebrated on Tuesday, October 15, 2024. A visitation will begin at 10:00 a.m. with services to follow at 11:00 a.m. at the Arensberg-Pruett Funeral Home with Pastor Stephen Lucas, officiating. A reception will be held at Wrens Events, 716 Commercial St, after the service. Steve will be laid to rest in the Cummings Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be left to the Atchison Animal Shelter, with checks made out to the City of Atchison, memo Animal Shelter. Cremation care entrusted to the Arensberg-Pruett Funeral Home.

I remember Steve at the Atchison Daily Globe, he would make me laugh with a joke almost every time I saw him. My sympathy and prayers go out to Marilyn and the family.
