Linda....May we offer our deepest condolences to you and your family. Steve was definitely a "Gentle Giant" who will be missed by all. Being friends of the McLaughlin family we were fortunate to meet you and Steve so many times and enjoyed your company as well as everyone in Nascar. He is "up there" with the "best of them".

Linda, We would like to offer you our sincere condolences with the loss of "Big Guy". From the very first time he stepped foot (bare foot that is) in our garage back in the 80's he instantly became a member of our family. He was one of the nicest and most generous persons we have ever met. I will personally remember those great years working together on the modified tour on the Sherwood Motorsports Cup Machine along with all those great weekends in Old Forge Snowmobiling. We had some great times and those memories are priceless. Our prayers are with you Linda and your family.
Sincerely, Paul Corazzo Jr. and family

To Steve"s family,
i grew up watching the Modifieds in the northeast and working the same pits all over the area with the Rosati family.Big Guy was one of the reasons I moved down south to pursue this life. I saw him and others like us making it in big time racing. For that I will always be thankful,and to have gotten to know him was icing on the cake. He will always be in my heart and prayers. Thank you for everthing Big Guy, you are truly missed.

To Steve’s family,
We who were blessed to know and work with Big Guy will think of him every time we enter the Nationwide garage. He was a kind and gentle soul, and a rare gentleman. Through my years in racing, I cannot recall meeting anyone more genuine. He will be missed.
With my deepest sympathy,

My deepest sympathy and prayers are with you at this very sad time. My Bill thought the world of Steve when they worked together at the Bottle Plant. He was a very caring person. I hope his memories will bring you comfort and contentment in the future.

"Big Guy" was loved by every single person that has ever worked in the Nationwide/Busch Series garage. I don't think he had a single enemy and it's very rare in life that you can say that about someone.
The memories are endless and I feel lucky to have many.
Linda - My prayers are with you.
