Steven Daniel Jensen of Myrtle Beach, SC passed away on May 10, 2023. He was born in Staten Island NY. Our family moved to Iselin, NJ in 1969. We grew up in a small town and Steven had many friends who became lifetime friends. He played little league baseball, and as a kid loved venturing out on his bicycle with his friends exploring. Steve was a member of the First Presbyterian Church in Iselin. Graduated from JFK H.S in 1984. He loved working on cars and doing carpentry which led him to becoming a Master Carpenter of Carpenters Union Local 254. Steven loved building things and had much to be proud of. He was a foreman on many big jobs while living in Jersey before moving to Myrtle Beach, SC in 2020 where he began working with our brother Jeff at his family business The Learning Station Child Development Center. They were a great team and a great comedy act. A brotherly bond that could never be broken, you could always count on there being laughter when they were together, even more so when our oldest brother Ron got together with them. Steve loved the ocean, boating and fishing, if he could he would have lived on a boat! Steve was a gentle giant, the baby of the family standing tall at 6'6 with a heart bigger than his stature. One could not help but love Steven with his great sense of humor and warm smile. Even all of our family pets, always went to get pets from the gentle giant. His grand niece Addison at 2 years old adored him and always asked for him. Our Family Chain is Broken...Our hearts are heavy, our lives will never be the same without him, he will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He is predeceased by our parents Ron and Magda Jensen. Surviving are his 4 siblings, Ron (Cristy), Jeff (Donna), Sue-Ann(Barbara), Wendy(Bill); nieces, Jocelyn, Allison(Matt), Mary Alice,and Amelia; nephews, Jeffrey(Lauren), Jason (Stephanie), Jacob (Alicia), Joseph(Danielle), Jordan, Billy, Tommy, Michael, and Matthew; Grandnephews, Levi, Hank, Graham, Carson, Banx, Jax, Finn and Liam; Grandniece, Addison. Steven found his last love, when he met Kellie. They were building a life together and planning getting married one day. Steven's life was moving in a great direction. He was taken too soon from all of us, but especially from the most important person in his life, his daughter Angelina. The proudest day of his life was the day she was born, his heart grew 10 times bigger. He was a dedicated Father and would have done anything for his little girl. Angelina was the light of his life, the apple of his eye, he celebrated with her her sweet 16th birthday this year. A beautiful memory for Angelina. His job here is done, where he left off we will as a family pick up and always be there for his daughter. In Lieu of flowers we ask that if you feel you want to do something for Steven in his remembrance that you donate to Angelina.
