Steve attended local Coeur d'Alene schools, graduating in 1978. He earned a bachelor of arts degree in business from Western State College in Gunnison, Colo., in 1982. In 1990, Steven received his masters of business administration from the University of Colorado. Steven was a gifted athlete who had the ability to learn various sports and excelled in each. After an extensive Junior Skiing Racing career, where he earned many local honors and won numerous tournaments and medals, he went on to attend Western State College on a ski scholarship. In 1981, Steven earned All-American Ski Team Honors, while leading his collegiate team to national honors as well. As a tennis player, he participated in and won several tournaments. While in Colorado attending school, he participated in several nationally syndicated bicycling events throughout the state, learned mountain climbing, whitewater rafting and fly fishing. He later decided to take up golf, and within a year, was an accomplished scratch golfer. He went on to win a number of tournaments locally as an amateur. When Steve was not racing against a clock, scampering up some mountain range or hiking through some wilderness area, he found peace and solitude in areas around Mineral Ridge or Tubbs Hill. His love of snow skiing led to ski instructor positions at Schweitzer Mountain, where he loved teaching young children how to ski. Steve attained his PGA certification in 1994 and continued to work in the industry for many years, teaching and helping many local golfers learn the game. Steve was a patient, encouraging instructor who enjoyed watching his tips being put into action, which quietly brought a smile to his face. Steve was a lifelong member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Coeur d'Alene and had recently enjoyed attending Lake City Community Church. Steve is survived by his loving family: Parents Karmen and Ed Servick; sisters Susan Servick and husband Cornell Clayton, and Shelly Servick and her daughter, Karmen Frampton. He also is survived by his extended family that includes numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. Steve was especially fond of young children, most of all, his niece Karmen, whom he loved so. Memorial service will be 10 a.m. Sept. 9 at Trinity Lutheran Church, to where the Servick family requests donations be sent, in lieu of flowers.
