I was shocked to know Steve had passed away.Steve and I was classmates at Trump Elementry school in Canton,Ohio.I just happend to try to search for old classmates thru google and when his name and pitcure came up I couldnt believe it.Steve was a great friend and I remeberd when he moved away to Arizonia and when he got there he called me and we talked for hours.I would visit him when he lived on Marrietta St in Canton. And to Robert you might not remember me but you where in the same class as my sister Threasa Walker.I would like to send out my condolences to his family and may God be with you.

Steve was a great friend and teammate for over 15 years. The kind of person who could and would stop and talk with anyone. Steve was taken from all of us way too early in his life,and even though you are gone i will never forget you.

For Steven,
Although we were apart you were thought of often. You may be gone, but never forgotten. We miss you so much, and are still in shock. We sit and wonder WHY....but we know God only takes the best.If Memories were a lane, and Tears were Stairs, I would climb them all to heaven to bring you back to us. It hurts so bad to see the hurt and pain in MOM and DAD'S eyes. We are all HEARTBROKEN. We will all be together again someday, wait for us.
ALL OUR LOVE, YOUR FAMILY.
Steven Jay Adkins Sr.

Kevin & Mary Brandt and Family would like send Theresa, Steven Jr , Cynthia and family our thoughts and prayers for your great loss. Steve was a long time friend of our family. Steve and I met back in the early 80's when we joined the Mens All American bowling league at Desert Sky. Wow! It seems like yesterday we we were in our 20's. It's certainly not going to be the same without you at Tri-city Steve, But all I can say is that, everytime we step into bowling alley you will be missed but never forgotten. God Speed ! Steve.
