Stephen H. Smith, 60, of Monroeville passed away unexpectedly on August 28, 2025. Steve loved and cherished family and friends and was very loyal. He never missed celebrating a niece and nephew's birthday with flowers or gifts. He was predeceased by his father, Ronald W Smith, and mother, Eleanor J Smith. He is survived by his brother, Ron Smith (Kathy), sister Susan Snavely, five nephews, a niece, and four grandnieces & nephews.

Steve was a Biomedical Research Scientist at the University of Pittsburgh. He earned degrees from Penn State and Pitt, and so he closely followed Penn State football and Pittsburgh Penguins hockey. He was an avid woodworker who spent many hours building projects with and for others.
