It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Stephen Taylor Radcliff on September 2, 2025. He died peacefully in his sleep following an extended illness at the age of 73.

Steve, as he was affectionately known, was born in Rossville, Georgia, and was the beloved son of James and Barbara Radcliff. He grew up in Cub Scouts and was a member of his high school marching band. He was a graduate of Rossville High School. After high school, he became a welder by trade and worked diligently to care for the large family he created. He had a great love for golf, bowling, and football and was an avid Tennessee Volunteer fan. But it was his deep passion for fishing that brought him the most joy.

Steve is survived by his children: Stephen Radcliff, Alecia Peters, Ryan Radcliff, Jason Ewton, Jeffrey Radcliff and Jennifer Pratt. He is survived by the following grandchildren: Evan Radcliff, Alec Radcliff, Carly Radcliff, Taylor Peters, Avery Peters, Soleil Keys, Aaden Radcliff, Aurelia Ewton, Carter Radcliff, Violet Radcliff, Brady Pratt, Braylen Pratt, Bryson Pratt and Kaylee Pratt. He was preceded in death by his brother James Franklin Radcliff. He is survived by his siblings Sheila (Ken) Stockhausen, Mike (Karen) Radcliff, and Gina (Frank) Eller. He is also survived by many beloved nieces and nephews. We will remember him for his deep love for his children and many grandchildren.

We celebrate the life of our beloved Stephen Taylor Radcliff who has gone home to rest in peace with our Heavenly Father.
