Stephen Ludwig
October 8, 2024 at 3:54 p.m.
Stephen Julius Ludwig, a lifelong resident of Cedar Grove, was born on July 7, 1946, in Batesville, a son to Franklin and Loretta Sacksteder Ludwig. He graduated from St. Meinrad and later married Sheila Quill on May 8, 1976. Steve was an electrician at Ludwig Contracting and then G.M. for many years. He was a member of Holy Guardian Angel Church and St. Michael Catholic Church, Cedar Grove FD, and EMS #4. Steve enjoyed music and played guitar in church and at parties. His other hobbies included woodworking; watching sports, especially the Reds and Bengals, and he loved seeing his grandkids play soccer. The nickname “Super Great Uncle Steve” said it all – his extended family thought so much of him. On Friday, September 27, 2024, at the age of 78 he passed away at UC Medical Center in Cincinnati.
Those surviving who will cherish Steve’s memory include his wife of over 48 years, Sheila Ludwig; two daughters, Jessica (Jason) Dilk, and Rebecca (David) Davis; three grandchildren, Andrew, Emily and Lauren Dilk; one brother, Benjamin (Jane) Ludwig; two sisters, Diane Strange and Margaret “Peg” Beard; a sister-in-law, Karen Ludwig, and several nieces, nephews, great-nieces and nephews and great-great-nieces and nephews. Besides his parents, he was preceded in death by one brother, Timothy Ludwig and two brothers-in-law, Raymond Strange and Terry Beard.
Friends may visit with the family on Wednesday, October 9, 2024 from 10 a.m. until 12 noon at Holy Guardian Angel Oratory in Cedar Grove. Father Vincent Lampert will officiate the Mass at 12 noon and burial will follow in the church cemetery.
Memorial contributions can be directed to St. Michael School or Holy Guardian Angel Preservation Fund. To sign the online guestbook or to leave a personal memory, please visit www.cookrosenberger.com. The staff of Cook Rosenberger Funeral Home are honored to care for the family of Stephen Ludwig.
