He was employed by Schlumberger Well Services from 1976 through retirement in 2010, starting out as an operator and finishing his career as a sales engineer.  After retirement, he worked as an oilfield consultant for Carrizzo Oil and Gas for 8 years.  Stephen proved to be a valuable asset to both companies and enjoyed his work very much.

Stephen spent his free time hunting and fishing. He supported the Graham Steers and was a loyal Texas Rangers and Dallas Cowboy fan. Traveling to places with beautiful scenery was a favorite thing for him with Ruidoso, New Mexico being top on his list. He liked attending stock shows and being involved with his daughter, Kelsey, showing pigs. He was fond of the many pets that the family raised whether they were big or small. He enjoyed spending time with his family and the holidays with all the family, fun, and food. He was a devoted family member, worker, mentor and friend to so many.
