Michael Anthony Stevens
February 22, 1991 – August 1, 2025
Michael Anthony Stevens, 34, passed away on August 1, 2025. Born on February 22, 1991, of Utopia, Texas. Michael was the beloved son of Rhonda West-Steffler and the late Howard Stevens.
Michael was a dedicated general contractor, known for his hard work and craftsmanship. Outside of work, he had a deep appreciation for the natural world—he loved hunting for arrowheads and enjoyed the art of flint knapping. Fishing brought him peace, music stirred his spirit, and his loyal dog Jason was his constant companion. Michael was a man of quiet faith and lived his life as a Christian.
He is survived by his mother Rhonda and stepfathers Carl Horton and Wes Rooney; his brothers Andrew Taylor Phillips and Thomas Gordon Hampton; his stepbrother Steven Horton; and his stepsisters Kristin Wetegrove and Robin Herrera. He also leaves behind his grandmother Patricia Hampton, and grandparents Lonnie and Millie Horton.
Michael was preceded in death by his father, Howard Stevens, and his grandfather, Gordon Hampton.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date in Utopia, Texas, where family and friends will gather to honor his memory.
Michael will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
Cremation is under the direction of Hillcrest Memorial Funeral Home
