Steven Riedemann

Steven “Steve” Riedemann, 63, passed away on September 20th, 2023. He was born on December 14th, 1959 to Elwood and Charlene “Schoning” Riedemann in Storm Lake, Iowa. He graduated from Iowa Central Community College. In 2019, he joined the Kettleson RV Family.

Steve was a devoted man with a heart of gold and a dry sense of humor that could light up a room. His dry wit and quick laughter will be remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him. But it was his unwavering love and commitment to his family that truly defined him. For nearly 42 years, he and his beloved wife shared a bond that grew stronger with each passing day. Their love was an enduring testament to the power of a loving partnership.

Steve was a man of many passions, and his zest for life was undeniable. With a heart full of adventure and a love for the great outdoors, he spent his days doing what he loved most: fishing, camping and fixing anything that came his way. Steve’s collection of Hawaiian shirts and sarcastic t-sheets were a testament to his personality and his knack for bringing color to the world around him.

His fascination with motors was a lifelong affair. From race cars to 3 wheelers, snowmobiles or anything with an engine, Steve was in his element when he was behind the wheel or under the hood especially when he was pit crewing for the mighty SR22. His mechanical powers were unmatched and he could make the impossible seem easy.

Those left to cherish his memory are his loving wife Sue; children Garrett (Heather)Riedemann and Hannah (Jeff Jr.) Byers; dog and companion Rex; grandchildren Tierney, Emerson, Malachi Riedemann and Michaela and JT (Jeff III) Byers; sisters Carolyn (Bob) Adcock and Sandra (Ed) McNamara; father-in-law Earl Sande, brother-in-law David (Nanci) Sande, sister-in-law Kathy (Mark) Beaman; several nieces and nephews and numerous friends. He is preceded in death by his parents and mother-in-law.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to the family to be designated at a later date.
