Steven Alan Shadoin, 69, of Lake Worth, FL passed away on July 30, 2017 after a 16 month battle with multiple myeloma. Born in New Castle, Indiana on February 8, 1948 to James and Mary Lou Shadoin, he was one of two sons. Steve proudly served our nation with the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War. He began his telephone career in 1967 working for Illinois Bell Telephone. After moving to Florida in 1981, he transferred to Southern Bell Telephone where he remained until his retirement in 2003.
