Obituary of Steven Glenn Bond

Please share a memory of Steven to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Steven G. Bond of Bedford, VA passed away on July 15, 2020 at age 62. Steve will be remembered for his kindness and generosity, as well as his infinite curiosity and knowledge of so many things. Over the years, he raised and cared for a whole menagerie of animals - from hermit crabs, guinea pigs, and rabbits to chickens, pigs, and cows; from a yellow-fronted parrot named Chico to numerous cherished dogs. Steve loved to retell the family stories passed on by his grandmother, the late Effie Luck Bond, and recently organized a reunion gathering of Bond and Luck relatives from far and wide. He was an accomplished baker and was a familiar face at the Bedford Farmers Market, selling ever-popular homemade baked and canned goods. Steve enjoyed listening to bluegrass and gospel music, growing vegetables, fishing at the beach, and volunteering at the Bedford Welcome Center. He was employed at Lowes and was a member of Bedford Baptist Church. He is survived by his father, Hugh H. Bond and his mother, Anne Mitchell Bond; his wife, Sandra Blevins Bond; his brothers & brothers-in-law, Stewart Bond & Dan Rodas, Mitchell E. Bond & Patrick Ellis; his step-daughters, Chris Newman, Jessica Mann; his step-grandchildren, Jaelyn Mann, Sidney Mann, Carson Mann and his sister-in-law, Brenda Mercer.
