Steven Robert Lunning was born on June 25, 1950, in Albert Lea, the son of Clayton and M. Elizabeth (Hanson) Lunning. Steven grew up and went to elementary school in Clarks Grove. He graduated from Albert Lea High School in 1968. On Sept. 26, 1970, Steven was united in marriage to Vicki Malimanek at St. Theodore Catholic Church. Steve served his country in the Minnesota Army National Guard. He worked at Wilson & Co. and Farmstead for many years. Steve then went on to do the job that came most natural to him – carpentry. His passion became Albert Lea High School sports. He rarely missed the chance to attend a Tiger football, basketball or baseball game regardless of his health. He was a member of Grace Lutheran Church, the Eagles and the Elks Lodge. Steven enjoyed spending time with his friends and his family.
