Mr. Steven Curtis Pace
January 28, 1963 - April 23, 2019
Steven Curtis Pace, 56, went to fly with the angels on Tuesday, April 23, 2019, after a five-year battle with cancer. He was born in Pensacola, but lived in Century for most of his life. Steve was known to many as a great friend who always helped others and never turned a single person away. He loved fishing and he loved John Wayne, but most of all, he loved his family. Steve devoted his time and energy to his loved ones, and cared deeply about each and every one of them. To his family, he was known as their hero—their “Superman.” His family meant the world to him, and he meant the world to his family. Steve was preceded in death by his parents, William “Buddy” Pace and Margaret Elizabeth Pace, and nieces Brittany Pace and Chasity Pace. He is survived by his wife of 37 years, Denise Pace, son Steven (Amie) Pace, daughter Rachel (Ronnie) Holt, and son Rannon (Marisah) Pace. Seven grandkids: Ean, Siobaun, Logan, Braelyn, Kaleb, Isabella, and Harper. Siblings: Audrey (Roy) Fawley, Bryant (Angie) Pace, and Beau (Dawn) Pace and numerous nieces and nephews. He was a loving husband, father, Pawpaw, and friend. Steve brought warmth and tenderness to everyone around him, and he will be truly missed. Services will be held Friday, April 26, at 2:00, with visitation from 12:30-2:00 at Petty Funeral Home in Atmore, AL. A graveside service will follow. On behalf of the Pace family, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to Caleb Deers and Covenant Hospice for the passionate care that they provided. “Courage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway.” – John Wayne
