To my dear friend Steve as I'm sure you know. It pains me that I was not able to see you before nor attend your funeral. But I will always remember the brotherhood we shared and the great times we had together. You were a great husband, father and friend. You and Hefty look in on us from time to time.
Good bye my friend.
Maureen, My prayers go out to you and your family.
Linda, Kim, and Josh I am so sorry that I could not be with you during your troubled times and try and help you through this. I will pray for you all daily,and when I come to Dayton I will make it a point to come and visit. Any of you please call me if you need to talk. I love you all dearly!
Sincerely,
Matt
