Steven Martinson
June 15, 1963-October 3, 2024
Steven was born in Flint, MI on June 15, 1963 to Sherry (Burnett) and Loren Martinson. He had three younger siblings, Thomas, Eric, and Shawnda. He was a rambunctious child who was known for injuring himself like having a bike handlebar go through his cheek. He was also hit and thrown by a car which resulted in his entire body full of gravel including his tongue and gums. He attended Millington and Central High School of Flint. He later obtained his GED while attending night school. He was an avid guitar player and played in several local bands. During his rock n roll days, he met Rita Kaczorowski who would later become his wife and mother of his children, Sarah and Stephanie. He worked a long time as a supervisor for a manufacturer for Buick City. When they closed down, he picked up several temp jobs before finishing his work life for Enterprise. He made lots of friends along the way and they were dear to his heart.
Steven was a jack of all trades and could fix anything. He loved being in the garage and working on cars for anyone who needed help. He enjoyed Looney Tunes cartoons, video games, music (especially his nephew Michael’s), wrestling with his kids, watching football, Nascar, and going to concerts with his daughter. He loved spending time with his family on holidays and being on the lake in Hale where his mom and dad (Duane Mathews) lived. He loved being a grandpa to Bryan, Alaya, Jaxon, Cameron and Mae’onna. He was a cool uncle to his many nieces and nephews.
You could always find Steven with a flannel on his back and a beer in his hand.
