Henry Stephen Seul was born Oct. 19, 1949, in Evanston, Illinois, to Henry and Mary (Karlovic) Seul. He grew up in Evanston and Northfield, Illinois, graduating high school from Loyola Academy. He attended college at St. Mary’s in Winona and graduated from Lea College in Albert Lea.
On Sept. 18, 1971, he was united in marriage to Vickie (Wood) in Albert Lea. Together, they had three children. He was very devoted to his faith at St. Theodore Catholic Church. Stephen had been employed as a meat cutter at Quality Pork in Austin and worked part time at Kwik Trip in Albert Lea, retiring after 17 years. He was a member of the Albert Lea Moose Club.
Stephen was an outdoor person who enjoyed camping, golf, fishing and working outside. He loved his time spent with the grandkids, woodworking and whatever was on his honey do list. He was an avid Chicago Cubs and Chicago Bears fan, enjoyed his walks with his dog, Sugar, and was stubborn but was always willing to help others. Stephen was very detailed, caring and loving and was always apologizing, even if he did nothing wrong.
He is survived by his children Jenna (Matt) Olivero of Alexandria, Jamie Kormanik of Lakeville and Chris (Jasmine) Seul of Albert Lea; grandchildren Anthony (Stephanie), Blaine (fiance, Taylor), Logan, Savanna, Roman, Aubree and Aliyeh; great-grandson, Eastin; sisters Judy McAdam of Thousand Oaks, California, and Mary Franke of Northfield; mother-in-law, Anita Wood; and numerous nieces, nephews, in-laws and other loving relatives.
He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Vickie; father-in-law, Vernon Wood; and nephew, Daniel Geyen.
