Stephen Priser

God lovingly reached out his arms and took Stephen Kent Priser, known to many as “Steve,” home in the early hours of July 24, 2020. He was 78 years old. His race has been run and the circle of life is complete now, after a two year fight with cancer.

Born on November 7, 1941, Steve was the son of Herbert and Mildred (Heeter) Priser. He was a graduate of Manchester High School and completed his education at Purdue University where he earned a Bachelor's in Pharmacy Science. He would work as a pharmacist for many years in both Indiana and Tennessee.

Steve was a member of St. Anne’s Episcopal Church in Warsaw. He had a strong faith and loved the Lord. He was a loving, caring person and the father of two, grandfather of four. He enjoyed buying and selling antiques, travel (including several cruises) and local roadtrips – he was always sure to take in the scenery on the back roads.

On June 9, 1963, Steve was married to Sylvia Rickert. She preceded him in passing on January 29, 2016. Blessed to find love twice, he was married to Cynthia Seward on March 3, 2017 – she survives at home. Also surviving are two children: daughter, Staci Wells and son, Shannen (Jenn) Priser and four grandchildren – all of Indianapolis.

A Life Celebration® will take place at Titus Funeral Home, 2000 East Sheridan Street, Warsaw where visitation will held on Friday, July 31st from 1 - 3 & 5 - 7 p.m. On Saturday at 11 a,m., Steve’s longtime friend, Pastor Kent Harting will officiate Steve’s Life Celebration service with burial to follow in Laketon Cemetery.
