Stephen Philip Caldwell, 63 passed away, July 13th, 2022.
Stephen was born December 14th, 1959 in Greenville SC. The son of a minister from Bob
Jones University, he relocated to NJ, outskirts of NYC and Western NY through several moves
and ultimately to Atlanta GA, where he graduated from Cross Keys HS. He went on to get a
degree in Journalism/Public Relations at The University of Georgia, where he was able to enjoy
a national championship in Football. Go Dawgs.
After he graduated, Stephen moved to Germany. He began his career with Gateway Marketing
and then Philip Morris International; servicing NATO bases in western Europe. These positions
allowed him to enjoy his favorite past time..travel. Both of his brothers were able to follow him,
after their graduation in various capacities, and joined in his adventures and ski outings.
He lived in Munich through much of his career in Europe and met his best friend Amadeus, who
became a permanent member of his family. Stephen managed to visit numerous countries
across several continents, one highlight being present in Berlin when the wall came down.
While in Germany, he met Amy and decided it was time to return to the states. They married
November 2nd, 1991. After their honeymoon in San Francisco, they made their home in
Naperville, Ill. Shortly thereafter, Stephen accepted a job in the Philippines and then returned to
the US with stops in Richmond, Virginia, Orlando, FL and Ossining NY. Ultimately, coming back
to Atlanta (and a short term assignment in Germany; family in tow).
Stephen was a very supportive, loving husband. He empowered his children through exposing them
to unique experiences and encouraging them to follow their passions. He was also a creative and
enthusiastic host and loved to bring people together with food and celebration.
He was an incredible fighter to the very end and was able to enjoy one more national title, by his
beloved Bulldogs and Braves.
