Bruce Steinfurth Obituary
Bruce Daniel Steinfurth, 56, passed away on July 21, 2024.
He was born on November 16, 1967, in Cleveland, Ohio; the beloved son of the late Glenn E. and Patricia C. Steinfurth (nee Dugan).
Bruce graduated from Cleveland Heights High School and from there went to work on the family farm, Dugan's Nursery. A few years later he returned to Cleveland where he attended Cleveland State University working toward a bachelor's degree with a double major in Business and Spanish.
He was a successful car salesman who worked for Marshall Ford, Preston Ford and Deacon Chrysler and Jeep.
Bruce proudly attended AA meetings and was dedicated to maintaining his sobriety which he achieved on February 1, 2016. Helping others maintain their sobriety was as important to Bruce as maintaining his own. He was also a member of the "Sobriety Misfits" AA Motorcycle Club.
He enjoyed photography, motorcycles and was a train enthusiast. He also enjoyed all types of music, playing the guitar and was a radio DJ for WCSB while in college. Bruce loved his family with all his heart. He enjoyed the friendships he had with his family members, and he loved his friends like they were family. Bruce made every gathering with family or friends a little more joyful just by being there.
He is survived by his loving sister, Jennifer (Amy) Wellington; his nieces and nephews: Elliot (Evan) Pippin, Christopher Fuller, Rebecca (Steven) Reilly and Samantha (Brandon) Fuller and his great-nephew, Noah Reilly. He is further survived by many cherished uncles, aunts and cousins.
Services to celebrate Bruce's life will be held on Saturday August 3, 2024, at Sly Funeral Home,15670 W. High Street, Middlefield, Ohio 44062. Visitation for family and friends will be from 4 - 6 p.m., with a Celebration of Life starting at 6 p.m. He will be laid to rest on Monday August 5, 2024, at the historic Lakeview Cemetery in Cleveland, Ohio.
