Rochester, NY – May 28, 2023 at age 43. Steven is predeceased by his father and best friend, Nicholas Borys; grandparents, Robert & Jeanelle Sant and Steve & Victoria Borys; as well as some aunts and uncles. He is survived by his mother, Marsha Borys; sisters Nicole Ribis (Tim), Renee Borys, Christina Jones, & Jeanelle Borys; nephews Timothy, Nathaniel, & Robert Ribis, and niece Oksana Borys; as well as aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Steven loved the outdoors. Hunting, fishing, and cooking were his favorite pastimes. He especially enjoyed doing those activities with his dad. Steven worked as a tree surgeon for years, but had no problem helping anyone out with anything they needed including fixing cars, traveling to clean up after Hurricane Katrina, or something as simple as changing a baby’s diaper. Wherever Steven went, he would create a close-knit brotherhood filled with support, care, and a feeling of belonging. Pretty much anything Steven put his mind to, he could accomplish. He loved to laugh and always had fun at karaoke. He would wow the crowd with his Eminem and Righteous Brothers vocals. Steven was a natural comedian making everyone around him laugh every chance he got.
In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Rochester Adult & Teen Challenge ( https://www.rochesteratc.org ) in Steven’s memory. This is an organization that helps people overcome addiction, a battle Steven fought for most of his life.
Steven’s Memorial Service will be held Sunday, June 11th, 5:00 PM at Anchor Christian Church, 375 Beaver Road, Rochester, 14624 with a coffee, sweets, and charcuterie social hour afterwards.
