Anita and Stephen- I can't begin to express how i feel for you guys. Steve adn you were like parents to me. He was my mentor, cheerleader, and friend and I will never forget our "family" vacation to Florida. I am always only a phone call away. I know his legacy in shooting sports will be carried on. I love you guys.
