Iris Nadiene Steck Dewsnap, 86, passed away suddenly on March 25, 2015 at St. Marks Hospital in Salt Lake City, UT with her family close by. She was born on October 28, 1928 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Iris was the only child of James John and Lillian Mae (Seyler) Drass. She graduated from Holy Spirit High School. While still a Senior, she was roller skating at a place in Atlantic City. She was a very good skater. A cute boy, who was a novice at skating, accidentally locked his skated with hers and they crashed to the ground. That boy was the love of her life, Paul Vincent Steck, Jr. And the rest, they say, is history. One of her greatest joys was raising her 10 children. She loved being a mother and was very involved in all her children did. She spent many hours volunteering and was one of the originators of the Egg Harbor City Crusaders football program. In 1976, Iris and Paul joined the LDS church and moved to Utah. After losing her husband, she married Bill Cook, and many years later, married Robert Dewsnap.
