Hello Steve's family.
It's taken me 29yrs to find your brother you can imagine how shocked I was when I found him here. It saddens my heart that I was to late. I met Steve when he was a driving instructor. He was the most patient person I had ever met. He definitely holds a very special place in my heart. I just wished I would have found him sooner. My deepest sympathies to you. I know it's been a year this month and I can only hope that the pain from losing him has eased somewhat. Believe me it would have made his day to know that I was looking for him. He seen me through major times in my life. God Bless him for being someone that believed in me. I always wanted to thank him for that.

My condolences to the family. May God give you great comfort. I will miss my talks with Steve. He knew about everything. He was a walking set of encyclopedias. He was very warm and kind. A wonderful man.

Steve was a unique individual and gave us co-workers some good laughs. He had a good heart and was always a stickler for detail. I loved the way he stood up to his boss. I worked closely with him and found friendship in a fellow Roselandite. We enjoyed sharing our memories of the "Ave." God bless him and comfort his family.

Steve was a very good friend and coworker. He always told it like he saw it. He was a true gentleman. I will miss his laugh and our lunches at the Chinese buffet.
