“My heart is so heavy today. I lost a dear friend and my favorite client on Friday. Stephen Muetzel was such a joy to have around. He would come in once a week and his presence was always known as all of my co-workers knew him by name and had his drink ready in hand (double cranberry vodka) the moment he sat in my chair. Steve always made sure I was taken care of and would bring me my favorite energy drink every morning he came in. He made such an impact on me and all of my co-workers and will definitely be missed. “I’m so greatful I was able to be apart of his last day on earth with us and I was able to give him one last hug. I never knew how much I valued my relationships with my clients until I lost one of my best. I’m definitely going to miss the laughs. Rest in peace. And no Steve, I’m still not mad at you.”
Beyond his professional prowess, Muetzel’s identity was deeply intertwined with his role as a devoted husband. His relationship with his wife was characterized by mutual respect, understanding, and an unwavering bond of love.
