Steven Ray Bloomberg

1947 - 2015

Steven Ray Bloomberg died peacefully in his home, surrounded by his family on July 26, 2015, two months after being diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma. Steven graduated from Roosevelt High School in 1965. He later received his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Washington where he received a scholarship for tennis. Steven was an advocate for peace, and gently spread his message of peace, love and reconciliation throughout his life. He began his young adult life traveling by car south to Oaxaca, Mexico, and north to Alaska. He spent the last years of his life traveling to places such as Taiwan, South Korea, Malaysia and wintering in the warmer parts of the United States. He had a passion for living in harmony with nature, and started "Flowering Mountain Landscaping" in the late seventies. He later went to work for Northshore School District and was beloved by those that worked along side him. Steven never sought rewards or recognition for what he did. He tirelessly served his family, friends, members of his church, and anyone in need. He will always be remembered for his humor, his work ethic, and his humanity. Steven was born to Lily Bloomberg and Ray Bloomberg. He is preceded in death by his brother, Clyde Bloomberg; his twin sons, Damian and Soren; and his grandson, Isaiah. He is survived by his wife, Paula Bloomberg; his daughter, Dawn Bloomberg; his son, Jesse Bloomberg; his brother, Brion Bloomberg; his grand-daughter, Jayda Woods; and a small army of beloved friends and relatives. His memorial service will be held at Evergreen Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 1607 Fourth St. Marysville, Washington 98270 on Saturday August 15, 2015, at 2:00 p.m.
