Steven Herbert Bormann

Herbert and Gladys (Corson) Bormann. On March 19, 2016 he went to be with his Savior while at

Eaton Community Palliative Care, following a two-year battle with cancer. He was preceded in

death by his parents and his brother, Douglas Bormann.

Never married, Steve is survived by his sister-in-law Martha (Beglin) Bormann, and his much

Loved nephews and nieces, Micah (Jaclyn) Bormann, Abigail (Joshua) Gabrielse, Jacob Bormann

(fiancee, Bethany Dickinson), and Hannah Bormann. Five great nephews, Douglas, Maxwell and

Henry Bormann, and Caleb and James Gabrielse, held a special place in his heart. Also surviving

are several caring first-cousins, many of whom attended Albion Public schools, as Steve did.

Steve graduated from Albion High School (1964), earned his Associate of Science Degree from

Kellogg Community College (KCC) (1966), and Bachelors of Science in Aeronautical Engineering Technology from Western Michigan University (1969). Returning to college in the mid-1990’s, he earned a second associate’s degree in Production Technology, majoring in Robotics. His early

work years were spent as a grocery stock-man (mainly under John Kehoe’s “watch”). He was proudest of his second career during which he maintained

and repaired molding machines and robots for Team-One Plastics, in Albion. Retiring in 2013, he pursued interests in reading,

technology, fishing and golf.

He served his second family, members of St. Paul Lutheran Church, as an elder for many years.

He, in turn, received Inspiration and Instruction, and , of late, much love and encouragement

during is illiness. Although somewhat reserved, Steve was a loving, faithful, ethical, hard-working

man with a great technical mind. God kept him strong through life’s trials. He will be greatly

missed by his cats Lion and Callie, his neighbors and friends (especially, work/fishing buddies Joe and Rick), and most of all, by his family.
