Uncle Steve, without a doubt, you were my favorite Uncle. I sill remember the first time you let me sit in the front seat of the cruiser at Gram's house. Driving your Drag car? One of the greatest days of my life! I will always love you, and never forget the times we shared over the years! Love, Vincent

As a former Police Chief of Ashfield I can say I am proud to have worked with Steve. He was a good officer and a good man. Good husband and father. Whenever I needed Steve no matter what time of day or night Steve would be there. He had a great love for Ashfield and the people that lived there. He will be sadly missed.
