Stephen A. ‘Steve’ Izdepski, 65, of Plymouth, passed away at 1:20 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 11, just six months after being diagnosed with Leukemia.

He was the third of seven children born to Alfred F. and Patricia A. (Maddox) Izdepski. Steve was born in Plymouth on June 14, 1949, and raised in the LaPaz area. He graduated from LaVille High School in 1967 where he played baseball. He then attained a political science degree from Indiana State University.

In 1979, he embarked on his own business as a skilled tradesman and became known in the area as Steve’s Concrete for the next 35 years. What Steve would like to better be remembered for is his acceptance of Jesus Christ just seven years ago and securing his Salvation. He loved to talk about God, read His word and live out his own life as a family man with Christian values. He loved his entire family yet especially enjoyed his grandchildren.

Steve is survived by his former spouse: Lori A. (Holzwart) Izdepski; his supportive partner: Lori Mangiaracina, Naperville, Ill.; his three loving daughters: Nicole K. (Jacob) Burton, South Bend; Sara M. Izdepski and Steven M. Wedel, South Bend; grandchildren: Laney and Ellie, Kayla A. (Matthew) Fillmore, El Dorado Hills, Calif; great-granchild: Walker; six siblings; Jerrolyn M. (Dale) Fansler, Plymouth; Susan K. (Al) Binford, Gulf Breeze, Fla.; Betty A. (Steve) Klingerman, Plymouth; Christine J. (Paul) Hundt, Plymouth; Cynthia J. (Steve) Rowe, Navarre, Fla.; Mark W. (Lona) Izdepski, Litchfield, Ariz.; along with many loving nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents.

Visitation will be held from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Friday, Jan. 16, in the Johnson-Danielson Funeral Home 1100 N. Michigan St., Plymouth. Services will follow in the funeral home at 6 p.m. Friday, Jan. 16. A reception will immediately follow in the Plymouth Wesleyan Church fellowship hall located at 11203 S. Michigan Road.

In lieu of flowers, Steve would be honored for you to perform a charitable act in Christ’s name as a testament to his faith.
