Dear Kelli, Paige and Mira,
My deepest condolences for your loss. I remember Steve as a man that loved his family. I remember him from our days at Oak Grove YCS. He always had a smile on his face and he was so proud of his family.
Thinking and praying for you all,

TO ALL the Munros.. how sad I was to hear about Steve. I know most of you but didn't have the pleasure of meeting him. If he is ANYTHING like his brothers and sisters... caring, witty, creative, thoughtful and a million other great words come to mind to describe him.
Lean on God and family now, you are in my thoughts and prayers!!

To Steve's Family and Coworkers-
I only worked with Munro Design Associates for a short time and I learned a tremendous amount in that time period. I am so sorry to hear for your loss. Steve was an amazing architect, boss, mentor, and friend. My thoughts and prayers will be with you all throughout this rough time.

Dear Mrs. Munro-
My name is John Samson and I was a pledge brother of Steve in the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity in 1974. I was shocked to get the news of Steve's death. I am very,very sorry for your loss.
I had not talked to Steve in sometime but mutual friends kept me up-to-date and told me of his successful architectural career and his family. His success did not surprise me.
I remember Steve as a smart, very hardworking and fun guy to be around. I am proud to say that Steve was my fraternity brother. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your children .

Dear Kelly and daughters,
We've never met but I am friends with Kelli and Scott Sasser who have mentioned you and your husband as being good friends and partners with One Hundred Days. Though I never had the honor of meeting Steve in person or you and your daughters, your grief touches me deeply. Our condolences and prayers continue to go out for you. May you feel the arms of Grace and Love at this time as you grieve and may you be comforted to know you will one day see Steve again.
Many blessings,

Dear Kelli, Mira & Paige,
I cannot express how sorry I am to hear of Steve's passing. I had the honor and privilege to work for him for a couple of years at Munro Design. He truly was a good hearted and extremely generous man and I am grateful that he touched my life.
He loved you all so very much, that was evident every moment of every day, and I know he is with you.
I am praying for all of you to feel GOD's strength, grace and peace to help you through this most difficult time.
With deepest heartfelt sympathy my heart is with you.

Dear Kelly, Mira and Paige. Your father and husband was an unbelievable man. He loved you all and just loved to help people. I had the great opportunity to work with him and know him. He was a Nebraska fan like my son in law and we would talk about the huskers. He always talked about you girls. It was a pleasure to work with him. He was honest,charitable, knowledgable and this whole world will feel the loss without him. I know he has a place in heaven. He is probably starting a program up there to improve things. I am deeply sorrow for your loss. He will truly be missed by many.

Dear Kelli Mira and Paige
I was utterly shocked to hear about Uncle Steve. I know he was a great person because my mom named me after him. I know he's done a great amount of charity work and has helped many people. I hope I can give half of Steve's generosity in my life. Steve always brought life to Munro gatherings and I could always relate to him. I remember when we visited you guys and we went to this big rock mountain hill and we all raced to the top, Steve had a really fun day planned out and I had a great time. I'll truely miss him.
Love Steve Savio

Dear Kelli Mira and Paige
I was utterly shocked to hear about Uncle Steve. I know he was an amazing man and that's why my mom named me after him. I know he did a great amount of charity work and has helped a lot of people in his life, I hope I can give half of his generosity in my life. He always brought life to all the Munro gatherings and I could always relate to Steve. I know God has a place in heaven for him, and we'll see him again.
Love Steve

Dear Kelli and Family,
Steve was such an Exceptional Human Being, He extended kindness to my Daughter during her employment with Munro and even more afterwards, never forgetting to call and pray with her and to ask how she was doing. His steadfastness over the last 2 years was such a credit to him as a Christian and while there are not enough words to express my sympathy at the loss felt by You and your daughters, I can only hope that there is Comfort in remembering the Legacy he left here along with the Reassurance in knowing that you will see him again. God Bless All of you.

Dear Kelli and Mira and Page,
God's timing is not always our timing. Husband and Dad is not here on earth but in Heaven with Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit. Believe me it is awesome. But the pain and loss may now be unbearable. The Father is here for that as well. I am feeling that pain myself. I loved your dad. He is experiencing unhindered worship which he loved to do. He wouldn't want us to do anything else; and yet to continue with great perseverance that personal race mapped out before each of us. (Heb. 12:1,2)
Together in Christ,
Roger

Dear Steve's family, parents and many extended families:
I was sorry to hear of Steve's passing. Our thoughts are with you and your families. I had known Steve since college and he was someone, everyone liked. After knowing him for several years, I missed seeing him on a daily basis, but the emails we traded helped keep us up to date with each other, but he will be truly missed.

Kelly,
I am so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. I personally understand how difficult it is to lose someone close so unexpectedly. I am sure it is the most difficult when it is your soulmate. I know you are heartbroken.
I pray that God will give you His peace that surpasses all understanding and that it will calm your hearts and minds.
Remember that your loss is shared by many friends who care. May you find the courage to face tomorrow in the love that surrounds you today.

To Steve's family: My entire family & I are saddened to hear of Steve's sudden death. Please know that Steve and all of you are in our prayers.
Steve and I shared a couple of mutual bonds. Steve Munro is one of my earliest & lasting memories as my classmate in kindergarten at the old Westgate School classroom houses on Westgate Road. Our class met in the afternoon session and we would often walk home together after school. We also did a few class projects together in grade school at St. Joan of Arc. In fact, Steve & I went to school together for 13 yrs (kindergarten thru 12th grade)
We were both equally surprised to later learn that each of us had become an Architect. Again, we would share a bond (the few times we met at our class reunions) knowing what each of us had to go through to earn our arch. degrees, and all the work each of us had to invest in our profession. That's a connection that I will miss.
My heartfelt sympathies to all of you.

I am so sorry to hear about Steve's passing. He was a very kind and polite person. I will miss seeing his smile as I past by him going into my office in the morning. My prayers are with the family, friends and his staff. He will be truly missed. God, has called one of his very special angels home to help design heaven. He designed awesome work here on earth.

Dear Kelli: I am so sorry... I just heard about Steve a couple of hours ago. He was a very strong man of faith and it is hard to believe, actually. Mary Nagle, Karen Burke & the believers there want you to know how sad we are over this, and also want you to call on us for anything you need. Jesus will come back to us soon and then we can all go home. We love you.
Sincerely,
John Snyder

Dearest Munro's,
Mom (Dionne) just let us know about your darling Steve's passing. She is so, so, saddened, as are we all. We are also heartbroken for you and Steve's family. Steve was Bradley's age, and I am Linda's age, and I have such fond (very early) memories of your whole family. Please know our sincerest prayers are with you. I know you raised your family to have a great faith. We will also pray for God's sustaining arms to be around you and to comfort you.
All my love,

I got an email yesterday about Steve's untimely death. I hadn't seen him since we were kids but I went back to Omaha this past summer for a grade school reunion and he was one of the guys that I was hoping to see again. When I googled him yesterday I realized that I would have really liked this man...a biker, runner, creative, business owner and family man. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sorry I didn't get to reconnect with him and I'm sorry that the world has lost another good man.
