Donations Needed Now! Funeral Services Set for Tuesday the 18th!
Columbia, SC – June 14, 2024 – New details have emerged regarding the senseless and tragic June 12th murder of Repo man Steven Hughes. But for the grieving loved ones that he left behind, how he died is far less important than how he lived. Like everyone else in the repossession world, he was more than just another Repo Man. Despite the obvious pain they are suffering, his mother and daughter provided us with a glimpse.
Please give now!
His service is tentatively set for Tuesday, June 18th and we are doing all we can to make that happen to allow them to have some sort of closure to this senseless craziness without it dragging out longer.
Steve Hughes, the Man
According to WIS news, Hughes was loved by his family and the Lexington County community and was well known his involvement in the community Facebook group, called “Happenings in Lexington, South Carolina,” that has over 46,000 followers.
He welcomed community members to post concerns, politics, events and resources. Hughes also shared details about his personal life with the group and recently asked the community for prayers when his brother passed away.
His daughter, Stephanie Hughes, tells me there will never be another person like her dad. She came to know him dad just in the last few years.
”I have regrets of not being able to know him as much as I could. But, you know, you always think you have more time until you don’t,” she said.
Stephanie Hughes described her dad as supportive, encouraging, and above all funny. She said he often encouraged her to repo just like him and was always ready to lend a helping hand.
Steve’s mother, Monica Hughes, has experienced the loss of her two other children. Steve is now the third.
As Monica reflected on his life, she told WIS News Hughes loved his job. Even though she often worried about his safety, he never did.
She said nothing will compare to the day she found out about his death.
“I haven’t cried for years and years and years, but then I did,” she said. “So, I didn’t know, I couldn’t even think, nothing. You know, it was just horrible.”
Stephanie Hughes told WIS she will never understand her father’s death.
“Someone my age was capable of doing this, when I found that out, the emotions that came over me, it was incomprehensible,” she said.
Monica Hughes said she doesn’t understand why someone would take another person’s life over the repossession of a car.
She said she will do everything she can to ensure Jackson serves the maximum time if convicted.
Despite this, the two plan to carry Steve Hughes’ memory with them always.
“He was one of a kind though, there will never be another him,” Stephanie Hughes said.
