Stephen John McGuire, also known as Tank, was born March 14, 1982 in Kansas City, Kansas to Carla Fewin and Stephen McGuire. He came into this world with a smile on his face.
Tank had the biggest heart and was always doing for others without hesitation. He was always so caring and a listening ear for whoever may have needed it. Tank didn’t always have the best strategies or ways of going about things, but he always had the best intent in mind and heart. His profound ways of thinking were unmatched, his mind worked in ways beyond articulation.
Tank was many things, but above all else he was a rock for his family. He had the ability to help them through the hard times and was able to ensure they saw the value in good. To see someone in such pain create light in the darkness has instilled a light of hope in all of his family.
Tank had a sense of humor that was second to none, and always persistent to make those around him smile and laugh. He always loved telling stories about his childhood. Tank’s favorite things in life were camping, fishing, and shooting guns.
Tank was an amazing son, father, brother, grandpa, uncle, and friend who impacted the lives of many. He will be missed dearly and live in our hearts forever.
Tank was preceded in death by his wife Crissy Newcome, his grandparents Clifford and Martha Fewin, and his cousin Clifford Herrmann. He leaves behind so many people he loved dearly, but most of all his children, Stevie, Paige, and Christopher, his son-in-law Brian, and daughter-in-law Taylor, grandchildren, Bentley, Zoe, and Nevaeh. He is also survived by his mother Carla and step-father Mark, his father Steve, sisters, Heather and Jennifer, sister-in-law Amanda, and his niece and nephews, Alexis, Dallas, Avery, and AJ.
