Dear Tracy& Family:
I found out today from Bob Smith my former boss that Steve had passed.
I am very sorry for your loss. Steve was a great friend and coworker. We had alot of laughs together and we allways chated about our kids.He also loved boxers I used to bring my dog to work and he really liked him. I lost touch with him since I left B.D.I. I felt terrible that I just heard about it today. I wish someone from B.D.I had contacted me I feel terrible I was not able to attend the services. Again I am sorry for your loss Steve was a great person and I do miss the times we would talk. He also used to tell me how much he enjoyed
his grand daughter Itty Bitty. He will be missed. Sincerly Paul Nylin

I worked with /Steve for 2 years and always enjoyed talking with him. His father and my mother were both in the same re-hab facility and we would talk often about what they were coping with. Steve was a good guy and I'm am very sorry at his passing. He will be missed by his friends as well as family.
