Stephen Paul Abrams

Stephen Paul Abrams left this world on January 22, 2025. Steve lived the way he wanted to, independently in his own home in Moscow, Idaho until his final moment. If you knew Steve, you know he was a kind man, good friend, devout Catholic, golf addict and music afficionado. He was born on July 24, 1949 and spent his boyhood in Pierce, Idaho being raised by his parents Frances and Jim Abrams along with his sisters, Joan and Sally. He spent his teenage years in the Lewis-Clark Valley and graduated from Clarkston High. As an adult, he worked various jobs throughout the inland northwest to fund his passion for playing music in various bands and to support his family. His final job before he retired was his favorite; teaching HVAC technicians at a trade school in Spokane, Washington. After retiring he moved back to Moscow to live closer to his children and grandchildren. Late in his life Steve loved playing music in his church, playing golf, watching sports and going to concerts. He is survived by his sons, Jesse and Andy, grand-daughters Emma and Maggie, and many beloved nieces and nephews of the Yochum family.
