Steven Don Ward

The much-loved son of Patricia L. (Wood) Ward and Marc Ward, Steven Don Ward, age 45, passed away peacefully on May 25, 2025, at Integris Baptist Hosital in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma surrounded by family. Steven was born on January 11, 1980 in Shawnee, Oklahoma. He grew up and continued to live in the family home north of town. 

Steven went to North Rock Creek Elementary School and Meeker High School. In his early years, he attended Sallateeska Baptist Church and later he attended Liberty Baptist Church. He was a proud member of the Sac and Fox Nation of Oklahoma. Steven worked at Billy Boy Barbeque and the Black Hawk Casino. The most important and rewarding job he took in his life was being a caregiver to his mother, Patricia, whom he loved dearly. 

Steven loved to draw, watch wrestling on TV, listen to music, and spend time with his family and the love of his life, Nicole. 

Steven was preceded in death by his mother, Patrica Ward; paternal grandparents, Elmer and Margaret Ward; maternal grandparents, Lorena (Mack) and Freeland Wood, Sr.; Uncles, Rudy, Woody, Eddie, Jim, Edgar, Bob, and H.D.; Aunts, Betty, Billie Jo, and Wanda. 

He is survived by his fiancée, Nicole Reed; father and step-mother, Marc and Kathy Ward; brother, Brock Ward; nieces, Taryn and Makenna; uncles, Terry Ward and Larry Hernandez; aunts, Katie Wood and Aida Grant; and many cousins, extended family, and friends.
