Marble Falls- James Steven (Steve) Lackey passed away peacefully surrounded by his family at home on June 28th, 2022, in Marble Falls, Texas. He was born in Odessa on August 20th, 1958 and was raised and educated in West Texas. Steve graduated from Littlefield High School in 1976, and later attended Texas Tech University in Lubbock, where he earned his Bachelor of Science Degree in Agriculture Economics in 1980. A lifelong banker, Steve worked as a Bank Examiner and later as a loan officer with banks in Dallas, Lubbock and Marble Falls, Texas. He earned his Eagle Scout designation that provided him with a moral compass and high level of integrity that allowed him to be a strong foundation for his family and friends throughout his life. He was a lifelong Methodist and was a member of the First United Methodist Church in Marble Falls. He was preceded in death by his parents, Patricia Lackey, James Lackey, and Lois Lackey. Survivors include his wife, Sara Lackey of Marble Falls; two children, Kate Light and her husband Josh of Houston, and Blake Lackey and his wife Avery of Portland, Oregon and one grandchild Carter Ann Light. He was a very charismatic, charming individual who knew no strangers. He was greatly loved by all and will be remembered as a loving husband and father. Memorial services for Steve will be held on July 16th at 11:00 AM at the First United Methodist Church in Marble Falls Texas with Senor Pastor, Ellen Elly, officiating.

I worked with Steve and Sara as bank examiners back in the 80's. I am retired now but in all my years I have never forgotten what a great couple Sara and Steve were. In fact when I left Lubbock, to start my banking career in Houston, they gave me a going away dinner. Throughout these years I have never forgotten that kind gesture and sendoff. It just goes to show you what kind of folks Steve and Sara are. RIP buddy and we will meet again in the great hereafter. Sara, my wife Joyce and I send our love and prayers to you.

Steve was my pledge brother in 1977; we shared some great times together along with our other Phi Psi brothers. I will always remember his mischievous smile and sense of humor. My condolences to his family.

Met Steve when they moved here. We had a little in common both being in the banking business (me former) and for sure us both being Red Raiders. Over time we got better acquainted and I believe he considered me a friend as I did him. I am very glad that our paths crossed and we are here to support Sarah and his family as need be.
