Steven Anthony Baron
August 15th, 2014
After a lengthy and hard fought battle with cancer, Steve passed away peacefully in Regina on Friday, August 15, 2014. He was born in Leader, Saskatchewan on May 1, 1962. Steve is survived by his parents Philip and Mona Baron, son Anthony, best friend Pat, siblings Dale (Bev) and their children Jeff (Marissa) and Amanda (Ryan), Marilyn (Wayne) Pittman and their children Jeremy (Monica, children Ariela, Oliver), Rory and Tyler, Dan (Kathy) and their children Kristin (Stephen), Erika (Nolan) and Melissa (Zac) and numerous other relatives and friends.
Steve spent most of his working career in Regina in the home construction industry. He was very skillful in his trade and strived for perfection in all of his endeavours. Steve was proud of the finished product and has left a legacy of his workmanship through the many projects he completed for family and friends.
Steve’s son Anthony was the pride and joy of his life. Steve always made time for him by attending his sporting and school events, guitar lessons, picking up and dropping off friends, and cooking meals for him, even sending care packages to Saskatoon.
Steve loved to laugh and tease and put a smile on everyone’s face. His positive attitude and desire to live was an inspiration for all who knew him. A small private service will be held in honour of Steve’s life at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Steve may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.

Our condolences to Anthony and Steve's family. Steve has been our wonderful neighbour for many years. He was always willing to lend a hand, look after homes when people were away and bail us out of projects gone awry. We will miss the many chats over the back fence and his presence in our lives.
Dan, Kathy and the Baron family. My condolences on Steve's passing. Knowing he fought the good fight and his pain and discomfort have ceased will leave only the great memories of him and your smiles will return. Best wishes always.
Anthony, so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. We will always remember the great times we had with him at hockey games and tournaments and he always had time to chat when we saw him around the city. Take comfort in knowing he is in peace now with no pain. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Take care.
We were very saddened to hear of Steve's passing. I have fond memories of 'Zeke' helping me pitch bales out at the farm when we were kids. He had come over with Rick Conn on his motorbike and they were a big help that day. Since then, we had many good times. We will miss him greatly. Our sincerest condolences to the entire Baron family.
Rick and I were saddened to hear of Steves passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Baron Family. May Steve rest in peace.
We are very sorry to hear of Steve's passing. We first met Steve when we had our house built by Sthahmann Homes back in 1999, who Steve worked for at the time. We lost touch after that until we got reacquainted through bowling, about 8 years ago. We also spent time together at many golf tournaments and banquets and thoroughly enjoyed his company. He was a very cheerful, easy going guy and always made you laugh and smile even through his battle with cancer and the tough treatments he underwent. It was our hope that he would win his fight with cancer, but, sadly this was not to be. Our sincere condolences to his family. He will be truly missed. His friends Mike and Carol.

We are very sorry to hear about Steve. Please accept our condolences. Have fond memories of Steve when he had stayed with us when we lived in Dunmore. Steve worked with Wayne Fleck learning the carpentry trade.
