Herman Steding Obituary

Herman Roger Steding, 77, of Chesterfield, New Hampshire, passed away on June 22, 2019 after a long fight with dementia. Born on June 30th, 1941 in Hartford, Ct., he was son of the Late Karl & Catherine (Rust) Steding. Roger was a graduate of Farmington High School Class of 1959, followed by four years with the United States Coast Guard. Roger retired from a lifelong career with The United States Postal Service in Springfield, MA, and in his retirement in Ossipee, NH, enjoyed part time work at the Effingham, NH Transfer Station. Roger enjoyed many vacations with his wife, Aniela to various islands, Western states, and Canadian destinations, their favorite place being Sedona, AZ. He also enjoyed camping with his family, Sunday afternoon football (NY GIANTS), old movies, lunchtime card games and his great love of ice cream. He is survived by his loving wife of 56 years, Aniela (Sutula) of Chesterfield, NH, sons Darryl & daughter-in-law Emily of Stafford, Ct and Michael & daughter-in-law Sue of Windsor Locks, Ct, a sister Carole Doty of Arizona and Sister-in-law Noreen Steding of PA. He is predeceased by his younger brother, Mark Steding of PA. Services will be private at the convenience of the family.

Roger -- just a great guy. Worked with him at the BMC. Great sense of humor and an infectious laugh. Always loved our conversations and the laughs we shared. A good family man who always talked about his boys. Roger always made my days at work more enjoyable. I miss the big guy.

To Aniela and the entire family. November 4, 2019 and I just learned of Roger's passing. I always enjoyed his company at the BMC and calling him in New Hampshire. I will always remember his laugh and his great smile and that twinkle in his eye. Roger's presence at the BMC always made my day and made my work life much more enjoyable. We shared many a good conversation and friendship. I was very sorry to learn of his passing and my deepest sympathy goes to Aniela and the boys (who he always talked about). And I will have an ice cream in your honor. Rest in peace, Rog.
