It is so wonderful reading these wonderful things about Steve. How great would it be if everyone had such nice things to say about all of us when we passed. Steve will always be remembered for his great sense of humor. You could not spend 5 minutes in a room with him and not share in a laugh or two, okay 10 or 12. He truly missed his calling, I am sure he would have been one of the great comediens. Maybe now he will be looking down over all of us and creating more laughter for this world of ours. He was a wonderfully smart and funny man.

My hearts go out to you, his family.

My handsome big brother, thank you for always making sure that I knew you loved me. I still remember listening to your funny made-up stories featuring your little dog Muffin. You always knew how to make me laugh. As a little girl and as an adult you made me feel what I had to say really mattered. You made me feel significant. There is no greater gift a brother can give his little sister than that. Your memory will live forever in my heart. I love you.

Steve was a great person who dedicated himself to whatever he put his mind to. He was always laughing and joking and ready to help others. I had the pleasure of working with Steve and I will always have fond memories of him. He will be missed. I send my deepest sympathy to the family.

Living across the road from Steve and his family brought us together waiting on the school bus. I have a lot of great memories of those mornings and the pestering (all in fun) I got from Steve and his brothers. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. Steve was a great guy.

I was a classmate of Steve's at Parkwood. Always loved his sense of humor. He was one of the people who I had hoped would have been at our last class reunion. He will be truly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with all his family and friends.

You were (and still are in my memory) the quintessential big brother). Thanks for watching my back, including me in everything you did and just being there for me, even when we were thousands of miles apart. You will remain my knight in shining armor, my defender, my idol and one of the best high school friends I had.
P.S. Thanks for taking the rap for me wrecking the 'rents car. Smile down on me because I am smiling up at you.
I love you Steve-a-rino!!!!
