Dear Janie,
I am saddened to hear of the loss of Steve. I have such fond memories of Newport News, VA and your family. Mom says that when Steve was younger, his comical middle child personality was quite similiar to my middle son, Tyler.

I'll always treasure my good memories of Steve at pap pap's house in PA. I can still picture when pap pap had him and Mickey snipe hunting in the backyard. These are memories that make me smile through the sadness. Please accept our sympathy.
