Obituary:
Steven A. Van Straten, 54, Shiocton, died Saturday, Oct. 27, 2007, at St. Elizabeth Hospital. Steve was born Sept. 25, 1953, in New London, son of Roger and Geraldine Van Straten. He was united in marriage to Tonya Lou Case on September 4, 1981. Steve worked as a supervisor the majority of his life in underground construction, finishing his career with Van Straten Construction. He served his country in the Army from 1971-1974 during the Vietnam Era and was a member of the Shiocton Post 512 American Legion. He was an avid outdoorsman, loved to hunt and fish and will forever be remembered for his contagious laugh.
Survivors include his wife Tonya; parents, Roger and Geraldine Van Straten, Shiocton; mother and father-in-law, Casey and Elvie Lou Case, Winter, Wis.; sons; Zachary (fiance Heather Suprise), Shiocton; and Shane (special friend Kara Meyer), Shiocton; brothers, Bruce Van Straten, Shiocton; Dean (Tamara) Van Straten, Shiocton; and Kevin (Kim) Van Straten, Shiocton. He is further survived by many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
Funeral services for Steve will be held Tuesday Oct. 30, 2007, at 11a.m. at St. Denis Catholic Church in Shiocton. Friends and family may call at the Borchardt & Moder Funeral Home in Shiocton, Monday evening from 4 to 8 p.m. with a 7:30 p.m. prayer service and at the church on Tuesday from 10 a.m. until the time of service. Burial will be in St. Denis Cemetery in Shiocton.
Steve was an inspiration to all of us with his strong will and determination to fight. From the initial diagnosis he was positive, strong and worried more about those around him than himself. He loved and was loved by many. He will be deeply missed.
On behalf of Steven, the family would like to extend a special thank you to the staff at St. Elizabeth Hospital and Fox Valley Hematology and Oncology. Also to everyone who took the time to send a card, call, and offered their prayers and support during this time.
