Steven White

Steven J. White, 59, of Middleton, WI passed away on November 12, 2018. He was born in Santa Barbara, California on October 24, 1959, the son of Bill and Ruth White. He graduated from Dos Pueblos High School in Goleta and received a degree in Economics from San Diego State University. In 1993 he was awarded a Master's Degree from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, CA in City and Regional Planning. In 1995 he moved to Madison; his Mother grew up in Monroe so he knew his way around the area. In 1996 he married Connie Froning; they had worked together in Hollister, CA before moving to Madison.

For many years he was employed by the Department of Transportation as a Transportation Planner and Contract Analyst. His co-workers will remember him as courteous and kind with a good sense of humor.

Steve was an avid sports fan and an athlete; he loved most every sport. He attended Humboldt State University on a scholarship to throw shot-put and discus. He played a great deal of baseball and softball in his younger years. The LA Dodgers were a favorite team and he quickly became a Green Bay Packers fan after moving to Wisconsin.

Steve is survived by his two sons - Kyle of Minneapolis and Joseph of Middleton. His mother also survives him in San Clemente, CA as well as his two brothers, Scott (Molly) of Rancho Santa Margarita, CA and Mark (Alyssa) of Newport Beach, CA. He was a loving uncle to nephews Chase and Brenden and nieces Lauren, Brooke, and Emma. His father Bill preceded him in death in March of this year; Steve and his Dad are now happily together again.
