Stephen was an outgoing and laid back kind of guy who knew how to enjoy a drink and have a good laugh. He loved to watch sports, especially the Chicago Black Hawks, and he also played Euchre and Crib. Stephen was sadly predeceased by his step-father Patrick Ward. He will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered by his mother Jean Ward, brothers Tim and Mark, sisters Anita and Tina, son Jason, grandson Logan, and his nieces Katie and Crystal. As per Stephen’s wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be no funeral service. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.
