The Dalles Chronicle, November 28, 2003
    Stephan “Steve” Joseph Reznicsek, 73, a resident of Grass Valley, died at 
a Portland hospital Thursday, Nov. 27, 2003.
     He was born June 14, 1930 in Silverton to Adam and Myrtle (Robson) 
Reznicsek. He was raised in the Grande Ronde area and attended schools in 
Gervis, Woodburn and Willamina. 
     He worked in sawmills and was a log truck driver before being medically 
disabled. He suffered from a disease called Marie Tooth Syndrome, and had to 
have both of his feet amputated. After he received his artificial feet, he got 
around very well, and most people were unaware of his handicap. In 1971, he 
moved to Grass Valley where he helped around the restaurant, Carol’s Kitchen 
and enjoyed visiting with people and making friends.
     He was a member of the First Baptist Church in Grass Valley. He was also 
a member of NRA and enjoyed the outdoors, hunting and fishing. His friends 
made sure he could go out. 
     He is survived by his sisters, Nora Wood, Dallas, Ore.; Rose and her 
husband, Roger Birt, McMinnville; Rosalie and her husband, Henry Payne, 
Harrisburg; brothers, Albert and his wife, Pat Reznicsek, Grande Ronde; Walter 
and his wife, Dorothy Reznicsek, Polson, Mont.; Virgil and his wife, Carol 
Grout, Grass Valley; and Marvin Grout, Tillamook; numerous nieces and nephews. 
He was preceded in death by his parents, and his stepmother, Dolly; 
stepbrothers, Lorenzo and Peter Grout.
     Funeral services will be held at Grass Valley First Baptist Church on 
Monday, Dec. 1 at 10 a.m. with Pastor Richard Kenney officiating. Interment 
will follow at Bethany Cemetery in Silverton. Smith Callaway Chapel is in care 
of arrangements.
     Memorials may be made to First Baptist Church in Grass Valley.
