Obituary for Joseph Michael Steiner
We mourn the loss of a very special man at the age of 90, born in Montreal, Quebec.
He was the beloved husband and best friend to the love of his life, Shirley Anne (nee Prieur). Loving father of Michael (Leona), Judy (Gerry) Martyniuk, and Gregg (Colleen). Dearest Papa to Brent (Stephanie), Kory (Jordyn), Natalie, Joseph (Courtney) and Jacqueline. Great-grandfather of Sloane. Predeceased by his brother Sebastian (Betty) Steiner, along with Shirley’s 13 brothers, sisters and their spouses. He is survived by his brother-in-law Richard (Patricia) Prieur and sister-in-law Rita Prieur as well as numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
We would like to give heartfelt thanks to the wonderful staff at Extendicare Southwood Lakes for the loving care they provided over the past several months. Special thanks to Sonya, Kim, Mitchell, Thuy and Maria, who helped our family through some challenging times.
Joe retired as an executive engineer from Ford Motor Company in 1986. He went on to share his product knowledge as a consultant for Mayne-McKenney Inc. and Yazaki. He was an avid golfer, sports enthusiast, musician, and a loyal fan of the Detroit Tigers and Montreal Canadians. He served on the Southwood Lakes Executive Committee, organized several golf leagues throughout his retirement, and was a member of the Knights of Columbus for many years.
