On February 24, 1990, Steve was united in marriage with Stephanie Miller at the Garden City United Methodist Church in Monona, Iowa. Two children were born to this union, Heather Mae and Cody Steven. Steve was a true outdoorsman, enjoying hunting, fishing, working in his garden, taking care of his trees and chickens, grilling/smoking foods, and going on mule rides. Steve loved his family, the Iowa Hawkeyes, and America. But most of all, being a “Papa” was his life. He loved anything that had to do with his grandkids, and he was so proud of them in every way. Steve was also a Wrestling Coach and proudly wore his “Coach Steve” hat and jacket. He could hardly wait to get on the mats, helping young wrestlers grow, and most of all, coaching his two granddaughters Tinleigh and Remy. He lived for wrestling with them and always looked forward to the next tournament.
Surviving Steve is his wife, Stephanie Radloff of Postville, Iowa; children, Heather Berry (Andrew Christensen) of McGregor, Iowa and Cody (Casey) Radloff of Severn, Maryland; grandchildren, Tinleigh and Remy Berry and Mira, Jacob and Maevis Radloff; siblings, Kevin (Bonnie) Radloff, Stacie Radloff (Jason Welch) and Brian Radloff (Amy Berns); and many nieces and nephews.
Preceding Steve in death were his parents, Loren and Jacquelyn Radloff; his grandparents, Wilbert and Gretchen Wiethorn; and his dogs Lizzy, Sarge, and Primrose.
