We just heard the terrible news. David and I have lost a brother. Steve was a terrific photographer for us and his brides loved him. He was great photographing little league baseball and football....he really connected with the kids. His humor and laugh were unique. Our thoughts and prays are with him, Debbie, and the family.

Steve had such a great love for life as well as his family. I will miss the pictures. Even though it has been years since I've seen him I can still hear his laugh and see the boyish twinkle in his eye. My sincerest sympathy to Debbie and the children as well as his Mom, Dad and Gary. Steve was a special person and my prayers are with you all.

I was also a member of the Village Idiots internet cigar club. I met Steve on several occassions, and had the fortune of smoking a few cigars with him, as well as enjoying his wit and keen sense of humor through the online bulletin board.
I will sincerely miss him.
My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his survivors.

My deepest sympathy to the entire Faccenda family. To me Steve was one of those "larger than life" people and I will always remember his kind spirit, infectious laugh, and good heart. He was the heart and soul of the "Class of 75". Rest in God's peace, Steve.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time. Steve was a great guy. I knew him from Whippany Park High School - we were on the same bus together. Always ready with a smile and a hello every day. May your memories comfort you in this time of sorrow. Lucille Andaloro, Whippany Park Class of 1973.

I was so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. We never got to smoke a cigar together, but I could tell from his many postings on the Internet cigar bulletin boards that Stave was one of the good guys in the world. I had the opportunity to see many of the photos that Steve posted online, and he was a wonderful photographer. He will be missed.

Deborah, I wish to extend my condolences to you and your entire family. I am so sorry for your loss. I believe I've met Steve many years ago from after work (at Bell Labs) visits to both Smiley's and Half Point where he worked. It's so sad when someone so young passes. I know this is a most difficult time for you and your family. I'd like very much to share a little something in writing that I found to be helpful in coping with loss. It's called "When Someone You Love Dies". Many people have said that it has helped them cope with their grief as well as gave them a positive hope for the future.
I'd be very happy to send you one. Please just answer me back via my email address sometime when you are feeling up to it.
Again, my deepest sympathy.

I am saddened by Steve's passing as I counted Steve as a good friend. I always came away a little better in spirit as Steve was so full of life. I pray that Debbie and their children can find comfort in the coming days knowing that Steve is at peace and that he lives on in memories of the heart.

I am saddened by Steve's passing as I counted Steve as a friend. I always parted company from Steve being a tad better in spirit as he was always full of life. One could not do better in life than to have known Steve and to have had his friendship. God Bless Steve and may Debbie and their children be comforted in these days ahead knowing Steve is at peace.

Steve, as the oldest of the grandchildren, I remember babysitting you and your brothers and sister. As cousins, we were all so close growing up. You were very good natured and full of love and laughter. To my dear Uncle John, Aunt Dee, Gary and Madeline, there are no words that will ease your pain, and to Steve's wife and kids, I pray that God will bless and comfort you in the days to come. Love you, Steve.

Our hearts aches for all in the Faccenda family. You are all in our prayers. I know how much he loved you. Steve and I would talk about our family's for hours at a time when we worked together at Tiffany's. He was so proud to be a Faccenda. I will miss his occasional phone calls or e-mail.
Steve, Rest in peace.
Love, Robin and Dawn Huff and Family

I was fortunate to meet Steve when we worked together at Tiffany & Company. We eventually became "lunch buddies", meeting in the cafeteria almost every day to share 45 minutes of conversation about all things from work to family to photography to sports. I remember Steve as a gentle giant with a big heart and a good sense of humor but little patience for B.S. I enjoyed our many conversations and grew to respect him as a man and devoted husband and father. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I was truly saddened to hear of Steve's passing. I knew him as a member of the Village Idiots internet cigar club. I met Steve in person during one of our many VIC's (Village Idiots' Conventions) at the JR Cigar store in Whippany, NJ. I remember when Steve got the job with C.A.O. Cigars. He couldn't have been happier. He was a wonderful man and a good friend that I am proud to have known. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. Rest In Peace Steve!

Steve and I shared many cigars in my shop and we talked about many things including the loss of my sister and my mom. He was always there for me and I have a hole in my heart. I have many great memories of Steve. He was a gentlemans gentleman and one of the few straight shooters in the cigar industry. My thoughts and prayers go out to Steves family and friends.

The first thing I see when I think of Steve is his brilliant smile and throaty laugh. He always wanted to do the right thing serving the greater good and wishing nothing but the best for his friends. I enjoyed Steve's company, his good humor and wonderful spirit. There are not many guys like Steve and I am saddened by his passing.
Safe journey my friend, God Bless you.

This is such sad, sad news... I remember Steve from many years ago when his brother Jay played drums in a band with my late husband. Steve kept me company many times at their shows while the band was playing. He was a great guy and always so friendly and easy to talk to. My heartfelt sympathy and prayers go out to his entire family.
