He is survived by his wife Stephanie Gatzemeyer of South Sioux City; children Joni (Josh) Hansen of Summerset, S.D., Steven Gatzemeyer Jr. (Lyndsie) of Sioux City, and Bradley Gatzemeyer of South Sioux City; grandchildren Nancy, Joshua, Samantha, Breanna, Lyllee, Sophia, Rhyker, Tanner, and Brylie; and brothers and sisters, twin sister Deanna (William) Weohler, Ricky (Johnette) Gatzemeyer, Ann Gilmore, Gerry (Michele) Gatzemeyer, Tammi Seger, and Billy Gatzemeyer; and numerous nieces and nephews.
Steve was preceded in death by his parents; sister Terri; brother Raymond Jr.; sister Lisa; grandparents; a nephew and great-nephew; and mother- and father-in-law.
