In Loving Memory of Steven Michael Stroh Jr.

July 8, 1969 – May 18, 2025

Steven Michael Stroh Jr., 55, of Gardner, Kansas, passed away on May 18, 2025.Born on July 8, 1969, in Kansas City, Missouri, Steven was the son of Vera Lorene (Lorie) and Steven Stroh. He spent most of his life in Kansas, where he lived with quiet strength and a deep heart. Though life brought its share of challenges, including significant health struggles, Steven met each one with courage and determination. He overcame more than most—and did so with humility and grace.

Steven enjoyed a quiet life with his family. Though he lived simply, he was deeply loved by those who knew him. He was happiest spending time with family, cuddling with the dogs, watching movies, fishing, or bowling.

He is survived by his wife, Astrid Stroh; sons, Jeremy Stroh, Colby Stroh, and Gerald Picado (Autumn); daughters, Amber Stroh and Dana Lietzke (Joseph); mother, Vera Lorene Stroh; sister, Stacey Stroh-Bledsoe (Warren); niece, Colleen Stroh; nephew, James Stroh; uncle, Chuck Lavery (Darlene); cousin Michael Lavery; great-nieces and great-nephew, Avery Stroh, Sophia Stroh, and Lila Stroh; and grandchildren, Alana, Noah, Everleigh, and Brinleigh.
