Stephen Hicks Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Barlow Funeral Home - Bardstown on Jul. 11, 2023.
Stephen Edward Hicks, 69, of Louisville, KY passed away peacefully in his sleep July 8, 2023.
Steve was known for his extreme generosity and ability to make everyone laugh. He would tell anyone that his proudest accomplishment in life was his three kids- Nikki, Tiffany, and Troy. Steve loved playing cards with his brother, Robert, sister, Geraldine, and her husband, Wil. Some of his best memories were fishing with his lifelong friend, Marty and his two sons-in-law. He loved to read and actually wrote several books. He worked in pest control for 40+ years and was the owner/operator of Primary Pest Control and was loved by many of his very loyal customers. For the last 17 years his dog and best buddy, Shadow, was always by his side and went everywhere with him. Steve was one of Jehovah's Witnesses, and loved to speak to anyone about his beliefs and hope for the future. He firmly believed in a resurrection, soon to take place on earth, and we look forward to seeing him, once again.
He was preceded in death by his father Gerald Hicks, mother Ora Catherine Hicks, and brothers James Otis and Larry Wayne.
He is survived by his two daughters, Nikki Fast (Tony) and Tiffany Lusch (Michael); his son, Troy Hicks, sister, Geraldine Beard (Wil) and brother, Robert Hicks as well lots of beloved nieces and nephews.
Cremation was chosen with a memorial service at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, the family would love everyone to share a fond memory of Steve.
