Steven Montey Monroe Jr., 35, of Harrah, Oklahoma. Gained his wings, Friday, Feb. 17, 2017.
Steven was born February 19, 1981, in Midwest City, Okla. He graduated from Harrah High School in 2001. He worked as a heavy equipment operator for Vinson’s Trenching for 10 years and a short time for Malaske and Sons and Okla. County Dist. 1. In 2014, Steven suffered a severe stroke and while his doctors feared the worst, his family prayed and held close to the promises of God. Steven overcame one obstacle after another day after day for more than 2 years. His personality remained along with his strength and resolve to conquer what he was told could not be overcome.
Steven enjoyed playing softball, and was known as the best softball pitcher by the umpires. He loved spending time with his family and friends, especially pestering and aggravating them. He was a football fan and especially loved the Dallas Cowboy football team. Steven was a member of the Harrah Church of the Nazarene.
