Steven was born in La Mirada, California to Daniel and Erin Lewis on 17 March 1983. Steven enlisted in the United States Navy in August 2001 and served aboard the USS Louisville (SSN-724) in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. While serving aboard the Louisville, Steven was deployed to the Middle East to support the Global War on Terror as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. After completing his tour of duty with the Navy, Steven enlisted in the United States Army and served nine years as an All-Source Intelligence Analyst. During his career with the Army, Steven deployed to COB Speicher, Tikrit, Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, and to Camp Liberty, Baghdad, Iraq in support of Operation New Dawn with the 25th Infantry Division. Steven took great joy in helping and teaching others; he taught his stepdaughter how to play strategic board games, and how to be an excellent marksman on the range. Steven had an encyclopedic knowledge of world and military history, and was blessed with a sharp wit and a quick sense of humor. The magnitude of his loss cannot be measured; his friends, family, and Army family have lost the most loving, caring, and upstanding man they have ever known. Steven is survived by his wife, Jessica Lewis; his step-daughter, Emily Miller; his mother, Erin Todd; his father, Daniel Lewis; his sister, Jacqueline Lewis; his brother, Clayton Todd; his step-father, Eric Todd; and his grandmother, Doris Bryant.
