Steven Vekved

Steven R. Vekved, 53, of Oak Harbor, passed away on March 17 after a short battle with ALS.

Happy to move back to Washington, Steven enjoyed long drives, ferry rides, and baseball games.

Steven is survived by his wife of 25 years, Michelle A. Vekved. His parents, Ron and Carolyn Vekved of Bellingham, brothers Dan (Michel) Vekved, Tim (Nancy) Vekved, Jerry (Sherie) Vekved, and sister Kristin (Eivind) Engen.

Steven was preceded in death by a precious niece, Rachel Anne Vekved.

A private service will be held.
