I worked with Steve on several projects at Meritor- Fletcher N.C. plant over the years. I enjoyed his professionalism and his positive attitude toward the task at hand. We here will miss him.

I was blessed to have worked closely with Steve for several years and and in multiple settings including Newark Ohio, Troy MI, and recently in Morristown TN.

Steve always took time to teach and share his experience in manufacturing technology and the best practices in project management.

I was also blessed to have shared several enjoyable meals with Steve and mostly enjoyed his stories of Greece.
