Steven Frye Huntingdon PA Obituary, Death: The Huntingdon County community is mourning the heartbreaking loss of Steven Frye, a devoted firefighter and family man, who passed away unexpectedly on April 17, 2025, at the age of 38. A proud member of both the Smithfield Volunteer Fire Company and Huntingdon Regional Fire & Rescue, Steven’s legacy is one of quiet courage, selfless service, and unwavering devotion to those he loved.
Steven was the kind of person everyone respected—steadfast in duty, humble in spirit, and always willing to lend a hand. Whether responding to emergencies or quietly helping neighbors, he represented the very best of his community. Known for his dependability, kindness, and strength, Steven led not with words, but through consistent action and heartfelt care.
Through his roles with both fire departments, Steven earned the admiration of fellow firefighters who knew him as a quiet hero. He was the one you could always count on—first to arrive, last to leave, never asking for recognition. His commitment to safety, teamwork, and the people he served left an indelible mark on those around him.
At the heart of Steven’s life was his beloved family. He is survived by his wife, Emily Frye, and their two young children, Jackson (6) and Lily (3), whom he adored beyond measure. Steven was a hands-on father—loving, playful, and fiercely protective—and a deeply supportive partner to Emily. The bond they shared was evident in everything he did, and his family was his proudest achievement.
Steven is also survived by his parents, Robert and Kathleen Frye, who instilled in him the values of hard work, compassion, and service. His sister, Melissa Frye-Barker, along with her family, and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and close friends, are left to carry his memory forward. His firefighting family—those who trained beside him, served with him, and laughed with him—mourn not just a colleague, but a brother. A memorial service to honor Steven’s life will be announced by his family in the coming days.
