Steve, I've thought of you often over the years and wished I would have contacted you when I thought of it. You were a good friend growing up, going to scouts together and playing basketball at PCHS. Rest in Peace Zak.

Steve,

You always made it a point to visit me (or have me come visit you) whenever I went to Virginia. I will forever miss your words of encouragement and kind-hearted spirit. You were a good man and I will miss you.
