Steve briefly worked for St. Mary’s Medical Center and then as an over-the-road truck driver. Steve started his own business, “S.C. Miller Custom Cue,” and eventually went to work for Nova Cues. He became well known for the quality, beauty and intricate detail of his cues locally and nationally as he was commissioned to design and build personal pool cues for the band members of Blind Melon as well as cast members George Clooney, Noah Wyle, Eric LaSalle and Anthony Edwards of the television show ER. On July 30, 1995, in Las Vegas he married the love of his life, Denise Deschler.

Hale Co. and was currently employed at Nature Tech as the lead draftsman. Steve enjoyed chess, pool, the dog track, casinos, his beloved cat, Max, and going to Green Bay Packer games.
