Steven Wolfgram Obituary
8/1/1954 – 1/18/2020
Steven Mark Wolfgram was born on August 1, 1954, to the delight of his loving parents William and Betty Wolfgram in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He leaves behind his wife Patricia Ann Wolfgram, of 41 years. His sons Benjamin Wolfgram (Jennifer) of Shoreline, WA and Ryan Wolfgram of San Francisco, CA, two grandchildren; Grace and Julia Wolfgram, his brother James' wife Mary Wolfgram of Muskego, WI and Thomas Wolfgram (Julie) of Maple Grove, MN. He was preceded in death, by his parents William and Betty Wolfgram and his brother James Wolfgram.
Steve spent his career with the same company, Silgan Containers Corporation, and enjoyed every moment working and socializing with his customers and coworkers. In his spare time he loved to golf, he was a staunch Green Bay Packer fan, an avid reader, played racquetball, rode his Harley Davidson and floated in the family pool. Most of all he loved his grandchildren and spending time with his family and friends. Steve recently retired on his birthday August 1, 2019.
He was larger than life, with a heart of gold. Steve was both gentle and kind with a childlike spirit. He was always up to something; his antics, and keen sense of humor kept everyone laughing. He was truly our "bull in a china shop." He will be forever missed, by all who knew and loved him.
Please join us in celebrating Steve's life this Saturday January 25, 2020 at 11:30 am at Saint Mary's Catholic Church located at 1225 Olive Street, Oakdale CA. In Steve's retirement, he volunteered to help young people set a course for their career by volunteering with the Job Ready Foundation. In lieu of flowers, if you would like to contribute in Steve's honor, please go to https://jobredifoundation.org/ to learn more about the foundation. Even better do any random act of kindness for a friend or a stranger, as Steve often went out of his way helping others.

Steve was a super guy! ALWAYS had a smile on his face and was always in a good mood. He gave me a compliment every time he saw me. I will miss seeing Steve zoom in and out of the Silgan Technology center. Prayers to his family for such a big loss.
Our Life has a way of falling down in mid-flight. We learn to endure, we learn to be strong and with every good-bye we learn. May God bless your family during this hard time and bring you peace and comfort as each day passes. Sorry again for your loss.

Steve always knew who he was and lived life to its fullest. He was a scary guy first meeting him in the fall of 1968 as freshman high school classmates but I quickly learned he was friendly, not a fighter. Steve now knows ALL of the answers and one day regale us who join him in Glory about what he did from this day and until that. Rest in peace, Mr. Steve. Condolences to Patty and the children and grandchildren...he had so much more to give and still will as long as we all make it to Heaven. That will be a fun reunion.
