Steven Smasal Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 11, 2025.
Steven James Smasal, of Saint Paul's West 7th neighborhood, passed away on August 7, 2025, at the age of 73. A true West 7th legend, Steve was a great coach, an avid fisherman and golfer, and a three-sport athlete in his youth. Crowned homecoming king, he carried that same charisma and kindness throughout his life, touching countless hearts along the way.

Steve was known for always putting family and friends before himself, offering guidance, laughter, and love to everyone who crossed his path. Whether on the ice, on the field, on the water, or over a good conversation, his warmth and spirit left a lasting mark on all who knew him.

He was preceded in death by his parents, James and Joan Smasal; his brother, Jack (Lyn) Smasal; his sister, Patty (Martin) Schramm; and his grandson, Jesse Smasal.

He is survived by his loving wife, Kimberly Jewell Smasal; his sons, Jesse (Tammy) and Sam; his grandson, Oliver; and his sister, Barbara (David) Hulit; and many nieces and nephews.

He will be deeply missed and forever remembered by his family, friends, former players, and the entire community.

A Celebration of Life will be held Thursday, August 14, 2025, from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Station 10, 754 Randolph Ave, Saint Paul, MN. All are welcome to join in honoring and remembering Steve.

Steve will be missed by all that were fortunate to meet him. A great guy that would always make you smile when you saw him. I am fortunate to have known him - watch hockey, talk hockey and play hockey. A really great man that loved his family and friends. Be well sir - we will miss you and remember you.
