Steven Michael Shinn passed away at the age of 61 at his home with his family by his side, August 6, 2015. Steven was born in Lodi to Jack and Claire Shinn on February 7, 1954. Steven was a life long resident of Lodi. At an early age he began learning to grow grapes and cherries with his father and continued to grow grapes into his late years. Steve was preceded in death by his parents, Elmer and Claire Shinn. He leaves behind his loving wife of 40 years, Sharon Shinn, 2 sons: Michael Shinn (Kristin) of Lodi and Matthew Shinn (Evonne) of Lodi, 7 grandchildren: Emma, Lauren, Kaleb, Adam, Isaac, Sam, and Kody and his brother, Bill Shinn (Sharon) of Lodi.
His life is marked by a lasting legacy of deep love for his wife, his family, and the significant friendships touched by the values that made him the great man he was. Steve lived a life of deep faith in Jesus, a constant source of generosity no matter who was in need, of laughter and fun that created a ripple in our community that will be continued by all who he loved and who will forever love him deeply.
Steve chose to live life moment by moment, full of purpose, hard work in his vineyards, serving his church, treasuring his role as a grandfather, vacationing at the coast which was his very favorite place to be. Most of all, Steve modeled what a strong loving man is, especially toward his very best friend, his wife Sharon. Our community has lost a wonderful man, and we know Heaven gained the joy of Steve Shinn and a life that was a genuine reflection of fighting the good fight, finishing the race, and living out his faith.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Hospice of San Joaquin, Temple Baptist Church, or to The Salvation Army.
