Stephen was born on his parents' farm in South Haven. He was named for his maternal grandparents. He attended the local schools, and in 1891, he graduated from the University of Michigan Law School, after which he began a legal practice specializing in probate, financial, and real estate matters.
In 1901, he moved to Kalamazoo to work for the Kalamazoo Savings Bank, which his father had founded in 1884. He became a director of the bank two years later. Stephen lived the rest of his life there, and played a large role in the industrial and commercial life of the city. By the time of his death, he had aided in the development of more than a score of important local business and manufacturing concerns.
Stephen eventually became president of the Kalamazoo Savings Bank. Serving with him at the bank was Charles A. Peck and his brother, Horace. They were older men who recognized in Stephen a keen business acumen. They were engaged in the financing of fledgling industries and were happy to find a younger man to help them carry on.
Another young man who became associated with the Peck brothers at about the same time, was Alfred B. Connable from the village of Petosky in northern Mchigan. Alfred married Horace Peck's daughter. Stephen and Alfred began an association which lasted until Stephen died in 1946.
The two friends and some others provided the original capital for the Monroe Calculating Machine Company, which Stephen's younger cousin Jay Randolph organized in 1912. Stephen and Alfred served on the board of that company for many years until they retired. Stephen's two sons and Alfred's three sons all played important roles in the company in later years.
