Obituary

Mr. Steven James Altman, 58, of Phoenix, Arizona died December 22, 2021 in Phoenix, Arizona. He was born June 10, 1963 in Toledo, Ohio to James R. Altman and Donna M. Griner.

Steve was a loving father, godfather, grandfather, brother, and uncle. He worked for the State of Arizona for over 30 years, where he made so many long-lasting and truly wonderful friendships. If you were blessed to have Steve touch your life in any way, then you knew he was always making people laugh at his stupid humor, he was always there to help anyone in need. His loves were Jimi Hendrix, true Rock and Roll, his green army jacket and (without a doubt) the Oakland, Los Angeles, Oakland again and finally the Las Vegas Raiders. He was a #1 silver and black fan for life. He will be missed by many and remain in our hearts forever.

Steven is survived by his daughter Jennie Roe Altman, son Steven Joseph Altman, father James Altman, sister Lynne Altman Hardman, and brother Thomas Altman. He is also survived by his God-daughter Winnie Gutierrez, and granddaughter Rylee O’Neal. He was preceded in death by his mother Donna Mae Griner Rainey.

A Celebration of Life is being planned and details will be given when finalized.

    I knew Steve for many years. He was truly an advocate for our youth. He was witty, funny, and caring. The youth really liked, and trusted him. Your going to be missed.

  2. I am sorry to hear of Steve’s passing. Growing up i always felt welcomed in his home when I was visiting my cousins. I will always remember his Raiders chair. I appreciate his friendly greetings, even after a lot of time had passed. I know he will be loved and missed by his family always.

    Steve was like a second dad to me. Gave me advice at times, talked shit, and cracked jokes. He was the kind of guy you could mess with all day, and he’d buy you dinner that night. He was just truly a great guy. I’ll miss you but keep you in my mind forever. Rest easy and as you would say “ciao”

Every time we would come to the Christmas Eve party I always knew where to find Frank it was with uncle Steve and every time Frank was like remember I told you, Uncle Steve is the one who saved me from drowning when my grandpa tried to teach me how to swim when he threw me in the pool when I was like 2. I’m like oh ok I remember. Glad he did because then I wouldn’t have such an amazing man today! So sorry for your loss again. From little amount of time I did know him he was amazing and so kind to us.
