She believed in the 4-H organization and seeing it reach its full potential for bringing families together and keeping members interested in worthwhile projects. Mrs. Steadman was diagnosed with ALS (commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease) in May of 1988.
Throughout her struggle with the disease, she maintained her interest and involvement in youth programs as much as she physically could. She died in December of 1992, but still lives on in the hearts of the many that she influenced.
