Steven Joe Vender, 45, passed away on Oct. 13, 2006 at Sutter Davis Hospital. He was a lifelong resident of Winters, born on Nov. 21, 1960 to Joe and Nina Martin Vender.
Mr. Vender spent most of his career as a construction laborer. He enjoyed camping, fishing, gardening and watching the Raiders (hopefully) win. He is described by family members as a compassionate person with a tender heart, who loved a good joke and could be counted on for a humorous comment. They say he just wanted people to be happy and was happiest when he was surrounded by family and friends.
Family members provided the following information about Mr. Vender’s life: “When Steve met Kim, he found a new meaning in life and his life became full. It was wonderful to know Steve had someone to share and experience life with, for over the past 10 years Kim gave Steve his own family he had never had. Steve’s joy was being “Papa” to Damian, Derek and Eddie “Harry.” He loved these boys with all of his heart just as they loved and adored him, spending time with him any chance they could. He also did his best to be a father figure to his cousin Matthew, who knew Steve was always there when he needed him. Truly all of Steve’s nieces and nephews loved their Uncle Steve and knew they were welcome at any time. Brandon, Destiny, Jamie, Eric and Chad knew that their Uncle Steve could be counted on for his unconditional love for them.
It was wonderful to watch him take time with his great nephew, Andrew and great niece, Alaina, who also gave Steve lots of joy. Steve was more than a wonderful brother to Terry and Denise — he was a good listener and a great friend, just as he was to many, for Steve had many friends. Steve’s love for his parents was obvious to anyone around. Nobody could love or respect their parents more than Steve did, for this is where he learned unconditional love and they were always there for him. The love they have for Steve seems impossible to put into words — no son was ever loved more. Steve will be greatly missed by all of his family and friends.”
Mr. Vender is survived by his parents, Joe and Nina Vender of Winters; brother, Terry Vender of Winters; sister, Denise Draper of Winters; several nieces and nephews.
Funeral services will be held on Thursday, Oct. 19, 2006 at 11 a.m. at the First Baptist Church located at 512 First Street in Winters. Interment will follow in the Winters Cemetery. Those who wish to sign a guest book online may do so by visiting www.wiscombefuneral.com.
