To the Stegeman Family, I'm sad for the loss of such a great person. Steg will always be remembered by me as a great father-in-law. He was known for his warm and caring nature. His giving spirit and good deeds allowed him to provide for an extended family. He always made enough - time, love, and generosity. He always found a way to make ends meet. He will be missed. Love to all,
