In Loving Memory of Steve Hubbard

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Jowett Family Funeral Home – Benzonia from Dec. 6 to Dec. 7, 2023.

Stephan “Steve” Hubbard, of Frankfort, took his last ride Sunday, December 3, 2023.

Steve was never scared to take on new opportunities and did everything with honesty and integrity. He was the owner of Bayshore Tire and Auto in Elberta and then opening in Frankfort. He was clever and filled to the brim with knowledge gained through all his life experiences: he could fix or build anything. He has strong values and is well-liked by everyone, mostly due to his positive energy.

His life was a testament to the power of joy, resilience, and the enduring strength of family bonds. He was a man who knew the value of a good laugh, the thrill of winter sports, and the importance of quiet moments of peace. Steve was a private person, but also very witty and fun! He had a passion for riding snowmobiles some would say he was as happy as a 6-year-old on Christmas morning, when he was riding his shiny red machine.

He leaves in his snow dust his wife Meg Hubbard, sons Robert Hubbard and Devin Poynor, grandson Clayton Poynor, parents Colleen (Steve) Hubbard, Bernard Stephan (Lenore) Hubbard, brothers Jason (Robyn) Ludy, Michael (Laura) Hubbard. nieces and nephews: Rebecca, Calvin, Conner, Rosie, Isabelle, Stanley with countless more nephews, nieces, cousins, aunts, and uncles from the Hubbard, Anderson, Dixon, and Reed Families.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

A service will be held at 2:00 pm Friday December 15th at the Benzie Central High School Auditorium. Friends and family are welcome to visit starting at 12:00 pm.
