Steve was born in Abington, Pennsylvania to the late James Michael and late Judith Ann (nee Bucknam) Ference, on April 9th, 1964.

Steve went to Neshaminy Langhorne High School and DelVoc Technical School. Steve had great mechanical and aptitude skills that he learned growing up with his dad. This eventually drew him to be a mechanic throughout his career with an expertise in fixing trailers and commercial trucks.

Steve was a family man who loved to take his friends and family fishing from his boat along the Merrimack River and into the Atlantic, oh boy! He loved to walk along the beaches of Plum Island and swim and snorkel in the ocean. Steve was dedicated to his two sons, James and Michael, never missing a game, whether it was football, basketball or lacrosse, you always knew where he was sitting in the stands!
