Steven Jay Dawdy Obituary
The passing of Steven Jay Dawdy in Marysville, Kansas leaves a void in the hearts of many, as we bid farewell to a loving soul who departed on February 22, 2025 at the age of 64. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Steven Jay Dawdy to show support.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his grandparents, Harold and Elsie Dawdy; his aunt Shirley; his grandmother Bern (Sabetha); his mother Nancy (Nanninga); his stepfather Jerry Hazlett; his spouse Desima; his sons, Major James Dawdy and Luke Dawdy; his children-in-law, Elizibeth and Yesenia; his grandchildren, Theo and Noah; his pet Scan; and also Steven.
Post-diagnosis and at the height of COVID, Steve was granted special permission by the Governor of Hawaii to enter and live where his son was stationed and to welcome his first grandson into the world.
In Steve's honor, Desima has been serving remotely on the Kansas Governor's Taskforce for Alzheimer's to help design a strategic plan to address the gaps and needs of patients and caregivers and educate healthcare providers.
