Steven Larance Gabrielson, 68, a resident of Chillicothe, Missouri, passed away Wednesday, June 30, 2021, at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kansas.
Steve was born October 2, 1952, in Princeton, Minnesota, the son of Earl Gabrielson and Margie Larson. He graduated high school in 1970 from Bensenville, Illinois. He enlisted in the United States Navy when he was only 17, and was stationed at Pearl Harbor Naval Base, Hawaii. He was united in marriage to Debbie Jeanette Ellingsworth on August 19, 1972, in Chillicothe, Missouri. After Navy retirement, he returned to Chillicothe where he eventually opened Chillicothe Truck Repair & Towing. Over the years he also did construction work, had various rental properties, and opened Midwest Suppliers Discount Store in Chillicothe.
Steve's love and dedication to his family was apparent in all he did. He enjoyed having the grandkids over and having a house full of activity. The grandkids enjoyed many things with Papa Steve including fishing, sledding, riding 4-wheelers, making popcorn and magically pulling candy out of his ears.
Steve also enjoyed traveling with his wife. In recent years they visited Australia, Kenya, Cuba, Panama and Peru. He also enjoyed long motorcycle trips, scuba diving, and flying his plane.
