He was born on May 23rd, 1954, to Ruby & LeRoy Ford Schwindt. He grew up in the Leoti Community.
Steve was a wonderful person. If you were his friend, you knew it. He loved his children, April and Alicia. He loved his family; blood or not. He busied himself with farming, Trucking, and being a friend to a special few. He lived life to the fullest doing anything and everything that he wanted to do. Many stories involved friends and family. Each one was a true adventure. Even in the second grade, he was the only one to ride a dirt bike to school. He lived his Dash (life) to the fullest. He found out early on that his life of being an adventure took a toll on his body. He loved his dogs very much; Meathead, Bud, and Spook. He oftentimes would feed them better than himself.
