Obituary for Steven P. Mensch
Steven Mensch, 63, of Fort Wayne, did not complete the crossword puzzle on May 9, 2021.
Steve was a journeyman industrial electrician for nearly 14 years at Kraft Heinz. He had previously retired from Eaton Corp (formerly Weatherhead and Dana Corp.) after 30 years of service.
Steve was a proud husband, father and grandfather, and a devoted provider. He loved sharing photos and videos of his family; collecting vintage tools and flashlights; fishing with his sons; camping and canoeing in Michigan; reading books about WWII; listening to classic rock; following IU basketball; and working on the daily crossword puzzle.
Steve is survived by his wife of 38 years, Ann; sons, Brendan (Rachel) Mensch and Kevan (Britni) Mensch; daughters, Kristan (Zachary) Seitz and Ellen Mensch; and grandchildren, Mya Mensch and Julian Seitz, all of Fort Wayne. Also surviving are his mother, Iona (Hamlett) Mensch, of Fort Wayne; brothers, James (Karen) Mensch, of Chicago, Ill., and Thomas (Pamela) Mensch of Fort Wayne; sisters, Theresa (Brian) Kelley, of Englewood, Colo.; Sarah Hull, of Fort Wayne, and Onie Mensch, of Fort Wayne; many nieces and nephews; and good friends Bill and Cathie Huston.
He was preceded in death by his father, Dr. James R Mensch, whom he missed every day.
Those who knew Steve are welcome to share memories of him from 5-7 p.m. May 21 at FairHaven Funeral Home, 6557 N. Clinton St. in Fort Wayne. A memorial service will take place there at 7 p.m. Masks required.
