STEVE PARADISO

STEVE PARADISO Mueller's Tri-Cities Funeral Home Steve Joseph Paradiso was born August 27, 1947 in Oakland, California to Joseph and Shirley Paradiso, and died May 14, 2018 in Spokane, Washington. Living in the Tri-Cities for 17 years, Steve was known in the Tri-Cities and surrounding area as "The Grout Doctor" everyone knew who The Grout Doctor was. Steve owned and operated The Grout Doctor for 17 years. He enjoyed meeting new customers, spending time getting to know them. He often took the time to pray with the ones he noticed needed a little touch from God. He was never afraid to share the hope that he had in Christ. He was a walking billboard for Jesus and The Grout Doctor. Steve was so proud of his business and the stellar reputation that he created (it was his Baby) as we like to say. Steve attended The Living Room Community Church for 11 years, where he served in men's ministry, community groups and supported his wife Sandi in any way she needed him too. Steve loved cars, mostly old Mopars, he entered numerous car shows and won with his 62 Plymouth Fury, which he was so proud of. He drove Sandi crazy, as they would be in a conversation and a beautiful car would drive by and he was gone, interrupting her with all the specks on the car, forgetting that they were talking. He knew his cars and loved them. Steve also loved to shop, and that guy could shop, he had a shoe fetish and a watch fetish but what he loved most was shopping for clothes for his wife Sandi. Steve was a father, grandpa and mentor to so many people, he touched everyone he met. He will be greatly missed! Steve is survived by his wife of 17 years, Sandi, children; Lynette Paradiso, and Kaleb Casey (Brandie). Grandchildren, Shainaleah Miller, Joshua Miller (Winnie). Nephew, Mario Paradiso (Teshala) and great niece, Skylee Paradiso and great nephew, Koldyn Paradiso.
