Steven J. Howenstine, 64, of Lafayette, died at 10:44 pm Tuesday, October 7, 2014 at St. Elizabeth East ER. He was born November 20, 1949 in Huntington, IN to the late Jay and Myrtle Oxley Howenstin.

He graduated from Columbia City Joint School. After graduation Steven joined the Army serving with the 101 First Airborne Division. He was a sharpshooter doing two tours in Vietnam from September 6, 1968 to September 3, 1971, receiving several commendations including 4 Bronze Stars.

On August 18, 1979 he married Pamela Ross and she survives. Steven was employed by Great Lakes Chemical, now Chemtura, for several years as a mechanic and then retired due to his declining health.
