Today, the Iowa Phoenix mourns the loss of one of our biggest supporters, Steve Christensen.
Steve wasn't just a fan in the stands he was family. As the father of our co-founder and president, Shannon Christensen, his support, encouragement, and belief in this team helped shape the Iowa Phoenix into what it is today.
Whether cheering from the sidelines, celebrating our victories, or standing by us through challenges, Steve's presence was a constant reminder of what community, dedication, and unconditional support truly look like.
Our hearts are with Shannon, Shelly, Connie, the Christensen family, and all who were fortunate enough to know him. While he may no longer be with us physically, his impact on this organization and the people within it will never be forgotten.
Steve, thank you for believing in us, supporting us, and being part of our journey.
Your Phoenix family will carry your memory with us always.
Rest easy, Steve. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.
