John Stephens (Schifsky) — a loving husband, father, brother and friend — died suddenly while mountain biking with his brother and friends July 4, 2010. He was 54.
A celebration of John’s life was July 12 at Pickering Farm, Issaquah.
John, who was born Oct. 12, 1955, is survived by his wife Sheila, his son Ian and their daughter Lauren. John had 17 brothers and sisters, and many nieces, nephews and cousins, and was loved by all. John loved the outdoors: biking, hiking and skiing, but he delighted most in spending time with his family, especially his children.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the American Cancer Society in memory of his parents, Virginia Wonsetler and Jack and Carol Schifsky.
Arrangements were by Flintoft’s Issaquah Funeral Home, 425-392-6444.
Friends are invited to view photos, share memories and sign the family’s online guestbook at www.flintofts.com.
