Steve’s family moved to Missouri, Kansas, and Colorado Springs before coming to Broken Arrow Oklahoma in 1975. Steve and his younger brother Mike enjoyed growing up in Colorado Springs where they rode motorcycles with the mountains in their backyard, starting at age 11. Steve began his love for cars, trucks, and motorcycles according to his mother, “as soon as he learned to walk”. While growing up he played guitar, rode motorcycles, worked on cars, and spent time outside with the family pets especially their dog, Mitzi.

He worked for a few years at Auburn Cord Duesenberg where they built classic cars which were his passion. Steve later worked at Arrow Concrete company for many years where he demonstrated a strong work ethic and had various responsibilities. Steve has been living in Strang, Oklahoma on Lake Hudson for the last 9 years. He fully enjoyed being outside with his animals including chickens, guineas, 2 snakes, three cats, and his dog, Shorty. He also enjoyed riding his Harley Davidson motorcycles in addition to having nice pickups to drive. Steve loved riding motorcycles most of his life and had a passion for Harley Davidson. He will always be remembered as having such a kind, loving, and nurturing heart. He was helpful to his neighbors as well as others who lived in Strang, Oklahoma by mowing their lots for free and taking them to town. Steve was predeceased by his father Al Jennings. He is survived by his mother Patricia Jennings of Tulsa, his brother Mike and wife, Tracey Jennings, niece and nephew, Mallory Cobb, and Holden Cobb of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.
