Steve and his family have been a big part of our family, growing up together, through good times and not so good times however through it all, Steve managed to keep his smile big and bright. His love for his family and friends showed in every aspect of his life, always willing to lend a hand even when he could have used one himself. "Never give up" was a daily attitude for Steve no matter how tough things became. I have so much respect for him and his family, we have lost a truly amazing man.
Our love is with you Barb, Tommy, Raymond,Ron and your entire family as well.
As Steve would say, "Come on Jeffy-Boy"
Rest in peace my friend.
