Stephen Valentine Whiskeyman, 62, of Lancaster, PA passed away on February 6, 2016 at Lancaster Regional Medical Center after a long battle with cancer. Born in Lancaster, he was the son of the late Kenneth Whiskeyman & Fern (Kissinger) Kleinstuber.

He was a 1971 graduate of Lampeter-Strasburg High School. Steve played football in high school, and later played semi-pro football with the York Lions in the late 1970s. He earned an Associate's degree in business administration from Broward Community College in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Steve was very proud of his Open Pit BBQ Service and would travel around Lancaster County selling his BBQ chicken. He was known to many throughout Lancaster and York counties as the Chicken Man, and to his close friends simply as Whiskey. He also adored his cat, Tigger, who he rescued as a little kitten.

Surviving are his two brothers: Douglas Whiskeyman and Kenneth Whiskeyman, Jr., both of Lancaster, PA; and two sisters: Ellen Kleinstuber of Eagleville, PA and Deborah (Whiskeyman) Massion, wife of Harold, of Deer Park, IL. In addition to his parents, Steve was preceded in death by his step-father, Robert Kleinstuber. Friends will be received from 10-11 AM on Monday, February 15, 2016 at the Charles F.
