Publish in a newspaper
WITH HEAVY HEARTS, WE BID FAREWELL TO OUR BELOVED BROTHER IN CHRIST, TONY PAUL STEINKE, WHO WAS CALLED HOME TO BE WITH THE LORD ON FEBRUARY 19, 2024 AT 60 YEARS OF AGE, FOLLOWING A COURAGEOUS BATTLE WITH AGGRESSIVE CANCER. TONY'S FAITH IN GOD SUSTAINED HIM THROUGHOUT HIS JOURNEY, AND HE NOW RESTS IN ETERNAL PEACE.
HE IS SURVIVED BY HIS DEVOTED WIFE MARIA, HIS LOVING DAUGHTERS BRANDI WELSH (HUSBAND CRAIG WELSH) AND MARLENNE, AND HIS CHERISHED SON JESSE. TONY WAS THE BELOVED SON OF PAUL AND MARJORIE STEINKE, BROTHER TO TAMMI (STEINKE) & DON JONES, TERI (STEINKE) & BART DENLINGER, TINA (STEINKE) & GARRETT WOODS, TIFFANY (STEINKE) &DAVID EILERMAN, TIM STEINKE, AND TODD STEINKE. AND ADORING GRANDFATHER TO HARLEY, KARMINE, AND LANDON. HE ALSO LEAVES BEHIND A LEGACY TO MANY NEICES AND NEPHEWS WITH FAITH AND LOVE THAT WILL CONTINUE TO INSPIRE THOSE AND ALL WHO KNEW HIM.
BORN IN COLDWATER, OHIO ON APRIL 23, 1963, TONY'S JOURNEY LED HIM TO ATLANTA, GEORGIA, WHERE HE CULTIVATED A SUCCESSFUL CAREER AND CONTINUED IT WHILE SETTLING IN WOODBURY, MINNESOTA WITH HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN, WHERE HE RESIDED UNTIL HIS PASSING.
TONY'S UNWAVERING FAITH, KIND SPIRIT, AND COMPASSIONATE HEART TOUCHED COUNTLESS LIVES, AND HIS MEMORY WILL FOREVER BE TREASURED BY ALL WHO HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF KNOWING HIM. THOUGH WE MOURN HIS PASSING, WE TAKE COMFORT IN KNOWING THAT TONY IS NOW REJOICING IN THE PRESENCE OF HIS SAVIOR, WHERE HE WILL DWELL IN ETERNAL GLORY. AS WE GRIEVE HIS LOSS, LET US ALSO CELEBRATE HIS LIFE AND THE PROFOUND IMPACT HE HAD ON ALL WHO CROSSED HIS PATH.
AS WE BID FAREWELL TO TONY, WE HOLD ONTO THE MEMORIES WE SHARED AND THE LOVE THAT WILL FOREVER RESIDE IN OUR HEARTS. THOUGH HE MAY NO LONGER BE WITH US IN BODY, HIS SPIRIT WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE ON THROUGH THE COUNTLESS LIVES HE TOUCHED. HIS SPIRIT WILL FOREVER REMAIN A GUIDING LIGHT FOR HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS. LET US LIFT OUR VOICES IN PRAYER, THANKING GOD FOR THE GIFT OF TONY'S LIFE
REST IN PEACE
AMEN
