February 06, 2023

Jack Dewayne Steele, Sr., 88, of New Providence, went home to be with his Lord and Savior on Monday, February 6, 2023 after a long illness. Born in Sutton, WV, he was the son of the late Art and Myrle (Miller) Steele. He was the loving husband of Ruth K. (Dawson) Steele. Together they shared 67 years of marriage.

Jack was a Christian man who was raised Baptist. He served his country during the Korea war from 1952-1954. He was a Truck Driver for most of his life and loved his job. He enjoyed reading and was known for helping anyone who needed it. Most of all, he was a loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather who will be very much missed.

In addition to his wife, Ruth, Jack is survived by his children Brenda Feerrar (husband, Harold “Bud”), and Jack D. Steele, Jr. (wife, Christien); his sisters Betty Carson, Violet Cantrell, and Rita Straley; and his grandchildren Lace Anne, Harold “BJ”, Janine, Lance, Allison, and Jack; as well as 14 great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

Services are private and at the convenience of the family.

To Jacks Family. So sorry to hear about Jack’s passing. I remember him stopping for gas. We would have some pretty good conversations. He was one of a kind. Always had a smile or ornery grin on his face  You are in our thoughts and prayers. The Ross family from the Sunoco Station in Quarryville
