Dennis J. Steskal

Dennis J. Steskal, 85, of Springtown, passed away on Thursday, November 7, 2024, at Grandview Hospital in Sellersville.

Born on March 3, 1939, he was the son of the late Francis J. and Ilsa (Meyer) Steskal.

A graduate of Quakertown High School, Dennis joined the United States Army and proudly served his country. After receiving his Honorable Discharge from the military, he pursued his degree in Electrical Engineering from Penn State University.

Following college, he became an employee of Bethlehem Steel as Project Engineer—a career he enjoyed until he retired when the company closed the Bethlehem campus. In retirement, he tinkered with various jobs, most notably serving as the project engineer for the sourcing and installation of Springtown Water Department’s Water Tower.

Outside of work, he had interests in nature, traveling and woodworking. During his retirement he enjoyed being a part of the SCCA, traveling around performing race car inspections.

In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his wife: Eileen Steskal, who passed away in 2002; and three sisters: Francine, Sally, and Rosemary.

Dennis will be lovingly remembered by his daughter: Andrea Doucette (Timothy); grandchildren: Natasha Doucette and Jamie Lang-Bednar; great-grandchildren: Isabella, Dyllon, and Oliva; and a sister: Janet Exarchakis.

Services will be announced at a later date.

Arrangements are under the care of the C.R. Strunk Funeral Home, Inc., Quakertown.
