Steven Eugene Witte

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Steven Eugene Witte on Saturday March 6, 2021 at his home in Prince George, British Columbia. Steven was a devoted husband to Linda Stacey, father to Luke and Andrew Witte, and grandfather to Benjamin, Jonathan, and Evelyn Witte. Steven was born on December 27, 1952 in Champagne, Illinois; eldest son of Ormal and Ardella Witte, brother to Craig and Marc Witte, and uncle to many nieces and nephews.

Immigrating to Canada in the late 1970’s, Steven and his family settled in the Prince George area where he worked as a rancher, logger and heavy equipment operator; later in finance. Steven loved the outdoors, spending most of his life hiking, camping, fishing, and hunting throughout the woodlands of the Eastern U.S. and mountains of Western Canada – passing his love of nature down to his children and grandchildren. He was quick to tinker with things as nothing was ever quite up to his specifications.

Steven was a man of God and a man of honor. Many times tested on his walk with the Lord, there was nothing that he would not do for family or a friend in need. We rejoice in the knowledge that he is now with God the Father, having been called home, albeit sooner than we would have liked. May you now rest, as your work on earth is done.

John 14:6 and Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life, no one comes to the Father except thru me"

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

John 3: 16-18 For God so loved the world he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life
