STEVEN MCNEELY Obituary

STEVEN MCNEELY 09/16/1954 - 05/13/2025 OAKWOOD - Steven Lee McNeely, 70, of Oakwood, Ohio left this earth on May 13, 2025 at his residence. He was born on September 16, 1954, in Defiance, Ohio to the late Margaret Gail (Brown) McNeely-Fellers and Robert McNeely. He was the oldest brother to Karen (Bud) Cohan, Lori (Jack) Lassiter, both of Oakwood, Ohio, Shawn (Angie) Fellers of Swanton, Ohio and Patty Wampler of Pea Ridge, Arkansas; and brother-in-law to Cindy Fellers of Charloe, Ohio and John Adams of Oakwood, Ohio. Steven leaves behind his daughter, Brittney McDonald, grandson, Brayden Sanders, nephews: Ryan (Lindsay) Lassiter, Sam Cohan, Chase (Tori) Wampler and Bowen Wampler; nieces: Carissa (Josh) Eitniear, Jennifer (Craig) Lloyd, Misty Fellers Reinhart and Caycee Wampler; many great nieces and nephews; and his two beloved pet companions; Dora and Klondike Bear. He was preceded in death by his wife, Sandy; son, Adam McNeely; mother, Margaret Fellers, stepfather, Harold Fellers; father, Robert McNeely; brother, Aaron Fellers; and sisters: Cindy, Stephanie and Holly Fellers. Steven was an independent truck driver most of his life as well as a Roll Off driver for Real Waste Disposal in Oakwood. He loved going to the casino and playing scratch off tickets, but most of all he loved talking religion and politics, especially with his mother for hours on end! He was a huge Trump supporter "Keep America Great." Steven had insisted there be no funeral, instead to remember him and the good times that you may have had with him. Arrangements are under the direction of HEITMEYER FUNERAL HOME, Oakwood. Memorial contributions may be made to Elara Caring - Hospice with whom he received compassionate and loving care from all. He said at the end, "I had a good life." Condolences may be expressed at www.heitmeyerfuneralhome.com
