He was preceded in death by his parents, Roger Stein and Lillian Bourg Stein; and brother, Walter J. Stein.
He was a parishioner of St. Francis de Sales Cathedral. He served in the U.S. Army in World War II in the Tank Battalion and was very proud to be a veteran. He was the manager of Oilwell Supply, Division of U.S. Steel, for 36 years.
He enjoyed dancing with his life's partner, Ruth, fishing, spending time with his family, living life "on the go" doing yard work, and using his hands to fix everything that was broken. He will be remembered for his outgoing personality making his presence known wherever he went and bringing laughter into other's lives. He will be missed dearly by his family and friends.
The family would wish that in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to your favorite charity in his name.
Falgout Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
