Obituary

CROSS PLAINS - Steve Verrett of Cross Plains, Wis., passed away on June 25, 2023. He was a businessman who traveled all over the world for over 20 years. A successful career that enabled him to have his own company, Executive Sales Service. His most recent work was with his friend, Dan Faia, at Lake Shore Cryotronics where his contributions were historical. Beyond the professional achievements, Steve had a genuine interest in the well-being of others and always extended a helping hand to colleagues in need. Steve was a mentor and a friend to many, offering guidance, support, and encouragement that touched countless lives.


Steve is survived by his loving wife of 35 years, Melissa Verrett; children, Christina (Steve) Zajicek and Aaron (Brianna Rose) Verrett; grandchildren, Paul Zajicek and Diana Zajicek; and brothers, Carl (Margie) Verrett, John Verrett and Ryan Verrett. He was preceded in death by his father, Racy Verrett; mother, Kathy Payne; and his brother, Jim Verrett.


Steve enjoyed playing poker, fishing, hunting and traveling, but most of all he enjoyed spending time with his family. In the last several years he enjoyed catching up with his Gulf War brothers, and he was proud of his service to our country.


His family would like to thank the nursing staff at the VA and UW Hospitals for their care of him over the last two months.

I worked with Steve at Lake Shore Cryotronics. He was a great mentor. Anytime I spoke with him, it was like taking an MBA course. He would kindly spend a minimum of 45 minutes on the phone with me explaining business practices like his “three buckets” story and “battle of the forms.” He was always happy to impart his knowledge onto others and was great at designing informative flowcharts and PowerPoint presentations. In our daily sales meetings, he would ask questions that had you expanding your mind to new ways of thinking. I smile when I think of him but am sad that there won’t be any more phone calls. My deepest condolences to his entire family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
