Obituary

Steve Huang was born in Pu-Li, Taiwan, on August 25th, 1958 to Shao-Yao Huang (father) and Wei-Tz Hu (mother). Steve is the youngest of four children in this middle class family of two boys and two girls. Due to his father’s job relocation, Steve spent his childhood in many cities, such as Pong-Hu, Ping-Dong, and Shin-Chu –all with great memories. The family eventually settled in Taipei where Steve spent his high school years.

Steve attended Tamkang University in Taiwan, majored in International Trade Business. During that time, Steve was convicted and baptized to follow Christ at age 20; he consistently did daily devotions and applied what he learned from the Bible to his life. Steve met classmate Tsai-Wei Tung and served together at college campus. Upon graduating from college and serving in the military for 2 years, Steve came to the United States and studied at the University of Detroit where in 1985 he earned a Master of Computer Science degree. Steve established his career in various companies – Compuware, Caterpillar Inc. and Plymouth Tube. His last job title was Integration Architect. During his 25-year career, Steve had many outstanding accomplishments; he loved his work and was fascinated with the evolution of technology in his lifetime.

In 1986, Steve married Tsai-Wei in Detroit, lived there briefly then moved to Peoria, IL. Both son Peter and daughter Joy were born in Peoria. In 1996, the family moved to Chicago suburb Naperville where the kids grew up and where they found long lasting friendships. Attracted by nice weather, Steve and family moved to California Orange County in 2011.

Steve enjoyed eating a lot, especially enjoyed eating with friends. He always considered “chef” as his unofficial second career. Steve was good at and loved many sports, especially Ping-Pong and tennis. He made many good friends through these sports.

Faith and family life are two focuses in Steve’s life. Wherever he lived, Steve loved to open his house to friends for Bible study and evangelism. As the spiritual head of his household, he led the family in attending a local church and conducted family worship at home, and raised his children with Biblical principles. He also served the Lord faithfully through serving people in various ministries, inside and outside of church.

During the final five years of Steve’s life, while battling colon cancer, he continued to serve the Lord without wavering. He was especially effective in evangelizing and encouraging cancer patients through sharing his experiences in faith and his cancer treatment. Nonbelievers were led to the Lord, other cancer patients were encouraged, and many lives were touched.

Steve fought the good fight; he has finished the race; he has kept the faith. Now, there is in store for him the crown of righteousness.

    Dear Terri, Peter and Joy,

    It’s so hard to say and express our thoughts.

    Whether short or long, no life well lived can escape the sorrow and losses of this world. But as we walk through them a humble trust in God will give us growing confidence in that great future.

    We are too sad to say anything,
    but,
    “He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” –Revelation 21:4

    Dear Terri, Peter and Joy,

    It’s very sad to learn that Steve is no longer with us on earth! And it’s really hard to know what to express our thoughts and love towards Steve, you and your family…

    Steve has done a GREAT job on earth of making a difference for Jesus!
    He still will shine… We miss him!

    Terri, The Lord’s love and heart are toward you TODAY – to keep you, to guide you, and to BLESS YOU as only He can.
    Though we may not be understood… By faith we know, “…for this thing is from me…” 1Kings 12:24 So may you be comforted, your faith be strengthened and your spiritual character be established… Miss you!

    “For I know the plans I have for you.” declares The Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah29:11

    Many thoughts and prayers are with you and your family especially at this difficult moment!

    Love
