Steven Douglas Bagwell
Steven Douglas Bagwell, 62, of Madison Heights went home to be with the Lord on October 5, 2022 at his residence.
Steve is well known for being the gas attendant at the former Amoco and his love for Jesus. He dedicated his life to raising his daughters and being a caretaker for his father. Steve was a man of few words. He had a love for motorcycles, hot rods, the beach, rock and roll music, but most of all he loved watching the sports channel and Nascar with his dog, Diesel Lou.
Steve was preceded in death by his loving wife, Nora Lynn Bagwell, and his parents, Frank and Shirley Bagwell.
Left to cherish his memory are his daughters, Nikki Slusher and husband Chris, Amanda Bagwell and boyfriend, Zach Fitzgerald, Rebecca Bagwell and boyfriend, Armond Sarokhanian, and Amy Powell; a son, Nathaniel Miller; a sister, Ann Childress; a brother, Frank Bagwell, Jr. and wife, Celeste; four grandsons: Chris Slusher, Jr., Cole Slusher, Aven “Leroy” Fitzgerald, and Alexander Sarokhanian; a special companion, Stephanie Robbins; as well as a host of nieces, nephews, and other family and friends.
There will be no service per his wishes, but the family will receive friends on Monday, October 10, 2022, from 6 to 8pm at Tharp Funeral Home, Madison Heights.
The family would like to give a special thanks to UVA Cancer Center, and Seven Hills Hospice, especially his special hospice nurse, Alice.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to Amherst County Humane Society, 318 Shelter Ln. Amherst, VA 24521, in memory of Steve.
Tharp Funeral Home & Crematory, Madison Heights, is assisting the family.

Steve was such a good man.. he brought out the best in me and tamed a few of my issues. I miss him so much already. And Diesel Lou is really sad and lost. Steve touched alot of lives and I'm a much better person because of him! Rest in peace I love and miss you.

You are free from this world now and my only regret is I didn't have more time with you. We share the same Birthday so I will always carry that with me, knowing this is something only you and I understand. Thank you

Saw my former classmate and friend at the Harley Davidson shop on Timberlake Road in Lynchburg. He was a great guy and will be missed. Sorry you did not beat the cancer, but now you have gained your wings in heaven. Sending condolences to Steve's children, grandchildren and Stephanie. RIP my friend. Fly high!
