Stephen Springsteel Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Dec. 27 to Dec. 28, 2022.
Stephen "Steve" John Springsteel, 75, of Bridgewater, New Jersey died unexpectedly on December 26, 2022, from complications associated with Covid-19. Steve's loss was completely unexpected, and his family is shocked and deeply saddened.

Steve was born on March 18, 1947, in Rahway, NJ. Steve is survived by his wife Joyce Anne Springsteel (N?e Murga) of 30 years. Son John Marshall Springsteel of Havre de Grace, MD (wife Gladys, sons John Francis, Stephen Marshall and Daniel). Stepdaughters Christine of Bridgewater, NJ (son Christopher, daughter Marissa) and Rebecca (son Ayden). Father Charles "Chuck" Springsteel of Rahway, NJ and predeceased by his Mother Malvina Springsteel (N?e Trevena). Brother Michael Springsteel of St. Petersburg, FL and Sister Linda Kavejon of Fords, NJ.

Steve worked as a Professional Tractor Trailer Driver at Evans Worldwide Trucking for many years. He loved his family very much and was a huge animal lover.

Anyone who knew Steve, knew that he was a wonderful man that was also kind, loving, caring, incredibly talented and loved restoring and building cars. Steve had an immense passion for Stock car racing, classic cars, and metal fabricating where he was always a reliable source of creativity. He had an impressive stock car racing career that lasted over 10 years where he won several trophies and awards and most importantly made lifelong friends. Steve's family and friends will miss him more than words can say.

Contributions in memory of Steve can be made to SAVE, A Friend to Homeless Animals (of Princeton, NJ). Per Steve's wishes, there will be no funeral services.

Who knew that getting something welded up would lead to long friendship. Spent a lot of time and worked on a lot of Projects with Steve. Thanks for showing me so many tricks and all the help through the years. His best quote "the welder don't care who is holding it!" God speed Steve.

Wished I met him a lot earlier in life. Shared stories of truck driving and stock cars. A motorcycle brother , bars up & pipes down. Rest easy.

Steve was one of the Best! Met him 40 years ago when we raced together at Wall Stadium. Always there to help anyone who needed it. A tough competitor but a clean racer. Taught me a lot on how to be a diligent fabricator. Gonna miss our conversations at Wall Stadium about racing and life in general. Godspeed Steve.

Sending deepest sympathy to the family on this sudden loss.
I had the opportunity to see Steve over the summer at his son,John 's and his wife Gladys' home for a family cookout. It had been many ,many years since we had seen each other and we sat a chatted for quite some time. Little did we know this would happen and I'm glad we had that time together. May he rest in peace
