Design & Drafting Technology

I spent 43 years in the fastener industry, transferring to our Charlotte, NC division in 2007. I have since retired in February 2013, loving life in the Carolinas with family.

I attend a contempory church in Lake Wylie, SC. I've been writing inspirational poetry since 2010, in praise of my Savior, Jesus Christ. I completed and published my first book "Through My Faith Came His Words...so I picked up a pencil and started to write... a collection of inspirational poems and thoughts. Available at Amazon in paperback or electronically. Please feel free to email me at msteffke@aol.com and I may send you a signed copy.

As a life long guitar player since my high school days......I never stopped playing. Acoustics, electrics, 12 string Rics, ukulele and mandolin.

I sing and play with various local musicians for seniors at various adult enrichment centers, and at local events. I started a music ministry at a children's home here in northern South Carolina. Also play at chapel service for our local Christian academy.

I recently returned from Israel and Jordan. 13 day trip in November, 2014. Unforgettable experience.

I have learned to live and celebrate the gift of life everyday to the fullest. Never forget we are all unique in the Lord's creation. Never cease to follow the guiding gracious light of Jesus.

I recall great friendships.... the creepy back stairway that lead from the second floor to the sidewalk on Vernor Ave. The cool frame structures we constructed in Building class. Long bus rides to and from school, but having great conversations with friends. The personal growth I received by attending Cass was invaluable.
