Steven Earnest Wojciechowski passed away February 18, 2022 at his home in Republic, Missouri. He was born February 9, 1959 to Walter and Betty Wojciechowski in Springfield, Massachusetts. He began his lifelong career serving his country, joining the Army soon after graduating from Wyandotte High School in Oklahoma in 1977.
His 44 year service included 22 years in the Army, attaining the rank of E-7, a BA in Business & Administration, and countless awards and medals for his excellence in service in Counter- Intelligence.
Immediately following his retirement, he began his second career as a Special Agent for the OPM, with another 22 years, further proving his love and dedication to his country.
Steve had many interests, including fishing, hiking, fitness workouts at his own home gym, and making memories with his family.
Steve was also an avid Raiders and OU fan.
His love for his great niece and nephew, Jerra and Jayden was so deep, he hoped he could someday spend more time with them and his entire family. His dream finally came true with his move from Washington State to Missouri last year. His kindness and generosity was his greatest contribution to everyone around him.
His health had begun to further deteriorate, yet he made the most of each and every day, attending every game and event for his great niece and nephew, family cookouts and holidays with his two nieces, Jennifer and Jeri and their families, and sister Audrey and her husband. Family time was indeed what he loved most.
Steve was preceded in death by his parents. Survivors include his beloved wife, Char, and step-son, Mike Nelson, sister Audrey Sargent (Victor), brother Vincent Wojciechowski (Wanda), niece Jennifer Rogers (Derek), children Karlee and Wyatt Page, niece Jeri Parks (Jesse), children Jayden, Jerra and Noah.
