Stephen Manster, 77 of Fredericksburg passed away on Monday, June 24, 2024 in Mary Washington Hospital. Born in Philadelphia, Steve worked for more than 50 years in public service. He worked in planning, zoning and local government across several localities in Virginia to include Front Royal, Colonial Heights, and Fredericksburg. Steve was most proud of his role as the Town Manager of Bowling Green, where he served for 11 years before retiring.
Not only was he invested in his professional career, he was also a humanitarian at heart. Steve spent his time on projects such as GWRideConnnect (formerly RADCO Rideshare), establishing the Thurman Brisben Homeless Shelter, and worked with several charities to provide aid to those in need. His work was recognized by the Virginia Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives. The results of Steve’s incredible work ethic and dedication to the community will be felt for years to come.
Survivors include his wife of 53 years, Marilyn M. Manster; his children, Ilene Goldberg (Howard) and Leo Manster (Jenna); his sister, Marcia Jaffe and his grandsons, Henry and Lucas Manster.
