| Published by Bradley Memorial Center - Lake Havasu City, Arizona - We are sad to announce the passing of Steve D Myers of Lake Havasu City on July 28, 2022 at the age of 60. He was born on the 22nd of June, 1962 in Falls Church, Virginia. As a child he travelled and lived around the world, from the east coast of the United States, to Greece and Ethiopia. The family eventually came back to Virginia, then made their way across the country to Lake Havasu, Arizona in 1978 where he completed high school, and attended Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, AZ, graduating with a BA in Political Science. While attending University he met the love of his life, Isabel Cabras. The two would marry shortly after graduating and move to Fussa, Japan when Steve enlisted in the U.S. Air Force. He served 3 years in the Comm Center at Yakota Air Base, achieving the rank of Staff Sergeant, and remaining in the Air Force Reserve for an additional 4 years. While in Japan the couple had two children, Ed and Caroline. After his military service they moved back to the states in December of 1989, settling in Lake Havasu where Steve entered a career as a Realtor in what was then a small but quickly expanding city. From a young age Steve was the consummate practical joker. He and his brothers would play all kinds of gags on his father, from short-sheeting the bed so his bare feet would stick out when he pulled up the covers, to putting brill cream in his toothpaste, and just waiting around innocently in the next room for the confused and angry reaction. When I was a kid I can remember all sorts of silly tricks he’d pull; like constructing a hideous shrunken head out of an old ball and paper mache, then balancing it above the door with a piece of string so it would drop down when you went in the room and scare you. Even going through his things after he’d already passed he’s still playing jokes on us. We found his old school Looney Tunes hand buzzer, where you’d hold it in your palm and shake someone’s hand to give them a shock. And on the shelf where we keep the peanuts we were surprised to find a jar marked “Fancy Nuts” was actually a spring loaded snake that jumped out of the can when we went for a snack. He was a life long sports fan and animal lover. Backing his home state D-Backs and Cardinals through both the highs and lows. And training dogs from unruly pups to well behaved loyal protectors of family and home. Though he has passed he will live on in our hearts and memories. The joy and laughter he brought to his friends and family will not be forgotten. And through his peers and family, the hard work and discipline he instilled in us will remain a shining example to all. He was preceded in death by his father John, mother Charlotte, brother John Michael, Uncle Don Arbogast and cousin Donnie Arbogast. He is survived by his wife of 37 years Isabel, children Ed and Caroline, brother Dave (Joy) Myers, sister Judy (Will) Harvey, sister in law Constance Myers, Aunt Anna Arbogast, Aunt Patti Myers, Uncle Donald C. Myers, cousin Terry Arbogast, nieces and nephews James Myers, Katie Salas, Charlie Myers and David Myers. No funeral service will take place per Steve’s wishes. In lieu of flowers please send donations “In Memory of Steve D Myers” to: DAV Chapter 27 PO Box 325 Lake Havasu City, AZ 86405-0325 |
