Stephen ALLCROFT Obituary
ALLCROFT, Stephen E.
Stephen E. Allcroft, born 17, 1960. A big, kind-hearted young man has fought a great fight against an ugly disease called cancer - and LOST - September 30, 2013. Since spring of 2012, his tolerance of treatment has amazed medical people, family and friends. Steve grew up in West Hartford, born in Brookyln, NY - his father an architectural student. Upon his honorable discharge from the Marines, he attended Central CT. Earning money appealed more to him in sales. Later he worked at Seafarer, managed restaurants before moving to So. Carolina. Returning to CT in 2002 he began to excel in photography and as graphic artist in Eastern CT. He'd had a camera in his hand from age 5. He became an ardent motorcyclist. He was predeceased by his father, Richard. He leaves a mother, Maryann, of Perkinsville, VT; a brother Kevin and family of Orrington, ME; a brother, Kristian and his family of Chicago, IL; a sister, Alissa Barrow and family of Enfield, CT; many relatives and friends around the globe.
