Steven Gagyi departed this life on Tuesday, August 24, 2021, at the age of 70 years, 1 month, and 19 days. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on July 5, 1951, the son of the late Ernast J and Janet Gagyi. On August 25, 1973, he was united in marriage to Patti Connor, who survives.
Steven was a tool and die machinist for Trico in Lexington, Tennessee and at Butcher Boy Machine, Inc in Selmer, Tennessee. He was a member of the First Baptist Church in Adamsville, Tennessee.
