Stephen Mettert Obituary
Steve proudly served his country in the United States Army from 1966 to 1968. Following his military service, he began a 34-year career with the U.S. Postal Service. After retirement, his commitment to serving others continued as he became a familiar and friendly face to many as a bus driver for Seymour Transit.
Steve cherished family vacations to Gulf Shores, Alabama. He enjoyed playing softball and was a lifelong sports fan. Steve rooted enthusiastically for the Cincinnati Reds and the Indiana Hoosiers, sharing countless memorable games with family and friends.
Music held a special place in Steve's heart. His favorite artists included the Beatles, Elvis Presley, Ricky Nelson, and the Everly Brothers, who brought a timeless soundtrack to his life. He often relaxed by strumming his guitar to his favorite tunes.
Left behind to cherish Steve's memory are his beloved wife, Connie (Kilgas) Mettert; sons, Steve (Tricia) Mettert, Ritch (Jennifer Hartwell) Mettert, and Eric (Jenni) Mettert; sister, Diana (Dennis) Hercamp; grandchildren, Clayton (Brittany) Mettert, Haden (Lauren) Mettert, and Kherington Mettert; and great-granddaughter, Aubrey Mettert.
Steve is preceded in death by his parents, listed above.
