Family Members:

STEVEN M. BEERBOHM, 70, of West Bloomfield, passed peacefully on the evening of Oct. 26, 2018, with the loves of his life at his side: his faithful and loving partner of 22 years, his dearest Suzie Canyock; and his loving daughter, Palmer Beerbohm.
Mr. Beerbohm is also survived by his brother-in-law, Jeffrey Goldberg; niece, Jennifer (Ben) Werbling; nephew, Dr. Jared Goldberg (Amy); his former spouse, Kathleen (Larry Weis) McCarroll M.D.; Suzie's parents Lawrence and Betty Canyock; and siblings Charles (Tammy), Paul and Lauren Canyock; many other loving family members and friends.
He was the loving son of the late Alexander and the late Gertrude Beerbohm; brother of the late Norman Beerbohm and the late Sherry Goldberg.
As big brother to Norman and younger brother to Sherry, Steven found himself to be the often joked about middle child. He was, at heart, a people-person, keenly aware of different perspectives. He worked diligently to bring people together and often found himself fulfilling/playing the role of diplomat in all his interactions.
A tireless organizer, strategic thinker and highly disciplined leader, Steven excelled in the health care industry, managing a vast array/wide variety of facilities ranging from large hospital systems to small private medical facilities and patient care services.
Volunteering his time and talents; Steven sat as a board member on several non-profits over the years, focusing his efforts on bringing medical services, much needed medications and care to children inside and outside of the United States.
Steven approached his day-to-day life with the same dedication, commitment and attention to detail that drove his professional and philanthropic pursuits. There was a plan for every day. He liked to wake up every day at 3 a.m. and be at the gym no later than 3:45. His work day started at 8 a.m. with his daily papers; he never cared to read the news on the Internet. He kept himself current reading the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times; he wanted to know what was happening in the financial markets and the latest news events in our world.
A U-M Wolverine himself, Steven cherished college football Saturdays with his Spartan daughter and even rooted for that "other" team.
He loved to travel, and Steven was an avid skier, master level scuba diver and slalom skier. Snow sports and water sports were some of his favorite things. Steven was an explorer of our planet, whether on land or in the water; each trip was a well-planned adventure as he globe-trotted places near and far.
Steven made friends wherever he traveled; he was truly a citizen of the world.
