Stephen John Marks was born July 17, 1952, in Santa Monica, California and was found dead at the age of 68 on June 17, 2021, in Sebastian, Florida. His parents, Jack and Barbara Marks, are both deceased.

Steve attended public schools, except for a year at a private military academy when he was young. He graduated high school in Florida where he attended Satellite Beach High School and Indialantic High School and was on the track and wrestling teams. He completed one year at the University of Florida at Gainesville. He took additional classes at Southern Illinois University in Edwardsville, Illinois.

In Illinois, he married his first wife, Sheryl. The marriage ended in divorce a couple years later. Around 1979, he moved to Texas, where he apprenticed and eventually became a master electrician. There, he met and married his second wife, Denise, in 1983. They were divorced in 2002.

Around 2000, Steve moved to Florida to live with his mother, who had retired in Sebastian. Barbara died in 2014.  Steve is survived by his sister, Suzanne Marks, currently in Atlanta, Georgia.

Steve was smart, fun-loving, and had a good sense of humor.  He was very handsome, showing characteristics of his half Jewish, half Polish ancestry. While not religious as an adult, he was raised in the Catholic faith. When he could, he enjoyed various athletic and outdoor activities, including bicycling, boating, tennis, and table tennis. He will be missed by his sister and friends.
