Steve was born in Saginaw, Michigan on April 12th, 1964. He was a graduate of Hillsdale College and Wake Forest University, where he obtained his Masters in Business Administration. He had a successful career in healthcare and spent his adult life in Washington, DC and New York City before settling in Nashville.
Steve’s life was enriched by his love of art, architecture, classic films and gardening. His unerringly impeccable sense of style found expression in everything he touched.
His close friends and family were rewarded by his caring and generosity. They were also delighted by his wickedly acerbic wit. His brilliant and sharp sense of humor will be forever missed.
Steve was a loving life partner, son, brother and uncle. He was preceded in death by his father George Ferré, nephew Paul Warner Bond, Jr. and his beloved dog Petey. He is survived by his mother Rudianne Ferré, his partner Judd Waddell (New York, NY); brother Staley Ferre’ (Tina Hummel) of Charlotte, NC; sister Suzanne Bond (Paul) , niece Lucy Bond and nephews Cooper and Jake Bond, all of Nashville, TN.
