Steven Lyle Zoelk, 63, passed peacefully with family at his side on Monday, August 19, 2024. Steve was born on December 15, 1960 to Lyle and Beverly (Boese) Zoelk in Neenah. He had a true passion for riding his motorcycle and camping. He also loved playing sports and was an enthusiastic sports fan, with a special fondness for following the Packers. In his younger years, he eagerly looked forward to the Hodag festival. Steve's heart was as golden as his sense of humor, and he brought joy to everyone fortunate to be around him. Steve had an unwavering bond with his dogs – Gunner, Frosty, and Teddy – who were cherished beyond measure and held a truly special place in his heart. Above all, Steve cherished his family, and the moments spent together will forever be treasured.
Steve is survived by his sisters; Kathryn Keller and Susan Anderson, nieces and nephews; Chanda (Wayne) Millard, Marissa (Luke Harris) Keller, Devon (Robby Marr) Anderson, Sara (Mauro Gallegos) Anderson, Keeli (Caleb Poppell) Millard, McKenzie (Connor Bost) Millard and Jude Austin, other relatives and many friends.
