In Loving Memory of Steve Odierno
A Cherished Member of the Saint Joseph Regional Community
It is with profound sorrow and heavy hearts that we share the devastating news of the passing of our dear friend, colleague, and community pillar, Steve Odierno. Steve was not only a deeply respected professional—serving as the beloved Director of Marketing at Saint Joseph Regional (SJR)—but also a proud and devoted father to Steven Odierno ’23 and Katherine Odierno ’25.
Steve’s presence within the SJR family was nothing short of transformative. His passion for the school, unwavering support of students, and creative vision left a lasting mark that will continue to echo through our halls and hearts. He brought unmatched energy and thoughtfulness to everything he touched, helping shape the voice and image of our school with integrity, excellence, and heart.
To know Steve was to know kindness. His quick wit, generous spirit, and genuine warmth made him a friend to many and a mentor to countless others. Whether behind the scenes or front and center, he always led with humility, sincerity, and an unfailing dedication to the SJR mission.
Beyond his professional role, Steve was a family man above all else. He spoke with pride and joy about his children’s journeys, cheering them on at every turn. He was a constant presence—not just at school events, but in the lives of those he loved.
The void Steve leaves behind is vast and deeply felt. In this time of immense grief, we extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, especially Steven and Katherine. We stand with them in mourning, and we honor Steve’s legacy by holding close the values he lived so fully: love, community, and commitment.
As we remember Steve, let us carry his spirit forward in our daily lives—in how we care for one another, how we serve with purpose, and how we cherish the moments we have together.
Rest in peace, Steve. You will be forever missed and forever part of the SJR family.
