Steven Crick Obituary

Steven Eugene Crick

Sacramento, CA - "He always put others before self."

Steve died unexpectedly of natural causes at his home in Sacramento on August 25, 2019. He was 60 years old. He is survived by his mother, Donna Forsberg Hanson and stepfather, Rev. Lloyd R. Hanson, Sacramento, brother Craig (Laura) Crick, nephew Kyle and niece Jaime, Reno, four half-sisters and Lloyd's four children. He was preceded in death by his father, Olin E. Crick, Reno. Steve worked for Taylor-Morrison Homes for 17 years as a Senior Superintendent. He was raised in Reno and attended schools there. Steve was a talented high school and college basketball player. He continued playing city league basketball for several years. Steve left us way too soon. Words cannot express how much he will be missed. His first priority was taking care of his parents. He enjoyed working on their home and made extensive improvements inside and out. An excellent cook, he willingly prepared many meals for his family and guests. Steve was an ardent sports fan and was the "go to guy" for trivia on all sports. In accordance with his wishes, no funeral service will be held. His ashes will be interred in Valley View Cemetery, Roxbury, KS.

To honor Steve's memory, a donation may be made in his name to Salvation Army Youth Basketball,(Scholarship Fund-Steve Crick) 2540 Alhambra Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95817.

I will always remember Steve as the perfect cook. I envied Donna and Pastor Hanson's positions in having such culinary talent available. I cherish those memories of being invited to the Hanson Home for church gatherings and dinner. Steve's gentle personality and his Exceptional Lamb Chops will always bring me warm memories.
I know that the Loving Father will grant comfort and peace to the Crick and Hanson families.

May God hold you in his hands, Steve. You were a star on the Reno High basketball team and treated me kindly, even though I was in the band. My condolences to your family and friends for their loss and may they find comfort knowing you are with Him. Tony Herz
