Steve was born in Kozivka, West Ukraine and immigrated to the United States in 1949. From Boston, he moved to Amsterdam, NY where he worked as a short order cook and completed a correspondence course in electronics. Family made Steve aware of a job opportunity in Akron which began a 33 year career as a micro-electronics fabricator at Goodyear Aerospace. The 1956 move to Akron began his long time association with Holy Ghost Ukrainian Catholic Church, where he served on the Church Committee for 20 years. He served as Providenia Secretary for 20 years. During his Goodyear career he worked part time for Fred Marvin and Associates, which became full time after his retirement from Goodyear. Even after retiring from Fred Marvin, he worked part time until his death.
