Steve was born the son of Victor and Dorathy (Hanson) Nelson on December 19, 1952 in Anthon, Iowa. He graduated from Anthon Oto High School and attended a plumbing apprenticeship. Steve married Rebecca Saunders on January 6, 1973 in South Sioux City, Nebraska. Steve worked for Foulk Brothers Plumbing for 45 years, first out on the job sites, then in the office as an Estimator. He was very dedicated to his work and enjoyed the relationships he made throughout the years. He served for many years on the South Sioux City Plumbing Board. He always took advantage of a great day of golf, or a chance of a game of cards. Visiting with family and friends was a joy to him. He was the first to volunteer to help anyone who needed help with anything, at any time, day or night. Steve is survived by his wife, Rebecca Nelson of South Sioux City; daughter, Jaime Woodard of Sioux City; brother, Roger (Shirley) Nelson of Anthon; uncle Tom Hansen of Kansas: grandchildren, Mandy, Marsha, Peyton, Isaiah, Victoria, Jessica, and Brenden; great-grandchildren, Jaelyn and Piper; and son-in-law, Jeremy Kleinschmidt of Sioux City.
