Steven Anthony Sheperd
January 2, 1990 – September 28, 2026

Steven Anthony Sheperd, 36, of Festus, Missouri, passed away unexpectedly on September 28, 2026.

Steven was a hardworking and devoted family man who did everything he could for the people he loved. He was a loving husband to his wife, Brittany Sheperd, and a devoted father to their children, Bailey, Adalynn, Emilia, Lincoln, and Everly. His family meant everything to him, and so much of what he did was for Brittany and the kids.

Steven loved being outdoors and working with his hands. He enjoyed making things out of wood and could always find something to work on or create. He also loved his rocks. He enjoyed finding them, looking at them, breaking them down, and seeing what was inside.

Some of Steven’s happiest moments were the simple ones spent with his family. He loved taking the kids for walks, swimming with them, and spending time around the water. If it involved water, Steven was happy. Those everyday moments with Brittany and the kids are memories his family will forever hold close.

Steven is survived by his wife, Brittany Sheperd; their children, Bailey, Adalynn, Emilia, Lincoln, and Everly; his parents, John and Carol Finch; his father in law Robert Sheperd; his mother in law Marcia Kelley(Jason Kelley); his brother, Scott Finch(Britney Finch) their children, Braydin, Connor, Jaycee, and Avery; his sister-in-law, Bridget Sheperd(Kevin Maurer) and their children Ava, Kylee, Stella, Max, and Myla; and many other family members and friends who loved him deeply.

Steven’s unexpected passing leaves an unimaginable emptiness in the lives of those who loved him. He will be remembered as a hardworking man, a loving husband and father, and someone who always worked to provide for and take care of his family. Most of all, he will live on through Brittany, his children, the memories they made together, and the countless little moments they will carry with them forever.
