Steve Foster

The family will receive friends from 1 to 2 p.m. on Saturday, January 25, followed by a memorial service at 2 p.m. at the Front Royal Fire Department, with Pastor Bill McHenry officiating. The inurnment will be private.

Steve was born September 30, 1950, and grew up in Flint Hill. There, he spent his childhood years hunting, fishing, and making memories with his brothers and cousins.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Bertha and David Foster of Flint Hill.

Steve leaves behind his beloved wife, Pam; his children, Davey (Keva), Shane, Jessica (Shane), and Adam (Bernie); his cherished grandchildren, Skyla, Isaac, Aubrey, and Abriella; his brothers, Bernie F. (Becky) and Mike F. (Alice); sister, Bobby Jo Adams (Frank); cousin, Johnny (Karen); and his best friend, Kirby Covert.

In 1999, he made a life-changing commitment: turning from a life of bars to the Bible and using his experience to spread the word of God. Throughout his life, Steve faced many hardships, but he always credited God with helping him overcome them.

Steve’s life touched many people as a devoted father, loving husband, proud pappy, loyal friend, coach, and, most importantly, a faithful follower of Christ.  He was known for his ability to listen, his unwavering faith, and his desire to share the love of the Lord in all aspects of his life. Whether through mule shows, jail ministry, school visits, charity events, or building the Amazing Grace Gospel Barn with a special companion, Gracie, the mule, Steve made it his mission to serve God and others.

Never ashamed of his humble beginnings, Steve used his past to form lasting relationships and to show how God can transform a life. In honoring Steve’s legacy, we encourage you to follow God’s will in your life.  As Steve often said, “God doesn’t promise you a smooth ride, but a smooth landing.”

We deeply appreciate the kind words, thoughts, and prayers you have shared with us during this difficult time.

Rest in peace, Steve.  Your legacy of faith, love, and service will continue to inspire us all.

Love, the Foster Family
