Obituary of Steve Hale
Peacefully, on May 13, 2022, Steven John Hale, in his 60th year, moved on to a better place.
Sadly missed by his wife of 35 years, Jo-Ann, his children Jaime (Scott), Jason (Christina), Kari (Chad), and Shannon; his 12 grandchildren, Max, Gracie, Lane, Brody, Taylor, Kyle, Justin, Jordan, Josh, Kaleb, Sarah and Kristen. Although Steve passed before meeting his 13th grandchild, his daughter finds comfort knowing their souls will cross paths in heaven. Steve will be dearly missed by his 3 great-grandchildren, Isaac, Spencer and Owen, and also by his two dogs, Bandit and Missy. Steve is predeceased by his parents, and is survived by his two brothers and one sister.
While deeply grieving, we remember with gratitude the happiness and good times we all had throughout his life. Steve’s time spent on earth was highlighted by his hard work, kindness, generosity, love and friendship. Steve had a wild side, and he had amazing grace. Steve took on many roles in life, but he took the utmost pride and joy in being a father and Grandpa.
Steve graduated from Fanshawe college, and in his spare time he loved watching his grandchildren’s activities, fishing, boating, spending time in the fields on the farm, playing many board games with his friends and family, and always had a few projects on the go. It brought Steve joy to lend a helping hand to his neighbours, and will be missed throughout the West Elgin community.
The family held a private celebration of life at Steve’s request and asks that any donations made in Steve’s honour go toward a charity of your choosing.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Steve

My dear younger brother, Steven John Hale aka Nuppie. You are my much loved brother, friend and one heck of a great person. Your pain is ended, the long journey completed and the final rest is now yours. I will miss our weekly coffee/lunch get togethers as they always gave me a smile in my heart. I especially enjoyed your hard work ethic, gentle sense of humour and your pride in your daughter, Jaime, her husband Scott and their children, your grandchildren. It was obvious from your smile and gleam in your eye that Jaime was the light of your life. The stories of your new Kabota, the dozers and excavator always reminded me of you as a young boy playing in the dirt piles. Your brother, David James Hale and his wife Beth miss you dearly. You have gone ahead to blaze the trail for us to follow. Until we meet again know that you will never be forgotten, you will always be loved by me. Rest easy Nuppie, I miss you my much loved brother.
