In Memory of Steve Ternes

Steven Arthur Ternes (March 22, 1952 – August 26, 2025) was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, friend, and pillar of our community. He brought encouragement, kindness, and a servant’s heart into all he did. In lieu of flowers, Steve’s family invites you to make a gift in his memory to continue a legacy that always reached out to help others.

Our Daily Bread shares Steve’s values of compassion, dignity, and care for all. Our mission is to unite the Enid community in fighting hunger and food insecurity, by providing nutritious meals in a safe, welcoming environment — no questions asked. We serve breakfast and lunch in our dining room, deliver meals to the elderly and disabled, offer prescription assistance, and support for those in need of grocery or hygiene supplies.
