Sam Steiner and Kay Peters were married at the Harlan Church of Christ by Ed Schantz on May 30, 1965 after meeting at the Lake James Christian Assembly in Angola, IN. This year the Steiner’s celebrated the 50th anniversary of their wedding with a family weekend gathering at the Essen Haus Restaurant in Middlebury, IN.
Sam and Kay have been blessed with six children: Kara (Brian) Davidson of Grabill, IN; Lisa (Michael) Walsh of Knoxville, TN; Bryce (Angel) Steiner of Antwerp, OH; Christa Steiner of Grabill, IN; Kent (Rachel) Steiner of Ramona, CA; and Adam (Rebecca) Steiner of Fort Wayne, IN. They also have 17 grandchildren with another on the way. All were able to join for the celebration along with Sam’s father, Maurice of Lake James, IN.
The Steiner’s have lived in Grabill on the Peter’s homestead farm for nearly 40 years. Together they have had a great impact on people on both sides of the state line in Indiana and Ohio. Sam ministered at the Grover Hill Church of Christ and the Antwerp Church of Christ (Riverside Christian), both in Ohio.
Sam graduated in 1964 from Angola High School, while Kay successfully completed her high school education in 1963 as salutatorian from the school now only operating in the memory of its students, Harlan High School. Both went on to attend Great Lakes Bible College in Lansing, MI and then completed their post secondary educations at Central Bible College in Moberly, MO.
All of their family and friends wish the best for Sam and Kay Steiner and believe they have set high standards with the example they have set for all.
