In Celebration of Life

Steven Joseph Sargent, 79, of Walton, Kentucky, passed in his home on November 29, 2021. Steven was born on June 12, 1942 in Cincinnati, Ohio to his loving parents Waldo and Elaine.
Family was always an important thing for Steven. He always said some of the
best times of his life were holiday meals surrounded by his loved ones. He particularly
loved to share his passion of cars with his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren,
taking many for rides in his prized '67 red Mustang.
 

Steven was member of Marine Corps, flying helicopters for the Marines for 18 years and was discharged with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in 1978. He was always proud of his time in
the military and often met up with old buddies to reminisce on their time in
the service. During his time in the service, he met the love of his life,
Mildred, and married her at Saint Paul Baptist Church in front of family and
friends.
 

He loved spending every moment with Mildred, traveling all around country taking in each of the sites. He always collected post cards for each of the cities they would visit, and he
loved to tell the stories for each of the post cards to his grandchildren and
great-grandchildren. Steven was also an avid Kentucky basketball fan always
brandishing his Wildcat Blue and watched every single game that Kentucky would
play. So, from him to everyone, GO WILDCATS!
 

Steven worked for Delta Airlines for 29 years, flying planes for Delta for 25 years. His coworkers
always raved about his hard work ethic and his friendly personality at work.
They also claim he makes the best cup of coffee anyone would ever taste. He
retired from Delta in 2007 after his 29 years of great service.
 

Steven had three children, Ricky, Mikey, and Jackie who he loved dearly. When he wasn’t away for
work, he would attend every sporting event, dance recital, and school event
possible. He loved to be involved in their lives helping any way that he could.
Though, they will tell you while he was an amazing father, you had to toe the
line and make sure your bed was made every morning.
 

Steven is survived by his wife, Mildred Sargent; his children, Ricky Sargent, Mikey Sargent, Jackie
Mastin; his grandchildren, Joseph Sargent, Jason Sargent, Jordan Sargent, Adam
Sargent, Kristen Wheeler, Lydia Sargent, Tera Smith, and Janelle Sargent; and
his has great-grandchildren, William Sargent, David Wheeler, Austin Sargent,
and Elise Smith.
