My Sister Nancy and Family:

I, too, will greatly miss my brother-in-law and buddy Steve in the projects we worked together--the sports teams we teased about and the friendship we shared. He helped me to grow up as a teen and was the example of an American Patriot for me. Yvonne and I will have special prayers for all our family on Steves behalf. He will be a part of me always.
With Love, Bob and Yvonne
