This popped up in my email today, and, must admit, seeing the beautiful picture of my dear college friend made me smile. I would love to hear about his son, and, how the family is doing. Steve and I enjoyed a very close relationship, he was loved by my mom and family and will forever be in our hearts.

To my husband in which I miss every single day I know what it truly means now to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Words could never express how I feel and what I'm going through in losing a husband and a father. Stephan truly misses his "Big Steve" daddy and we pray for you every night.
I find comfort in knowing that you are with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. And that we all would be entering the Kingdom of Heaven at our appointed time.
Love you always,
Your wife Vivian (a.k.a. Sis Vee)

Dear brother Steve, although you were born the oldest, and I was born the middle, and Amanda the youngest, I never felt envious of either one of u. There is no one who can replace u as my oldest sibling. I love u dearly and I miss u. I believe u are with me in spirit and I believe u are with me in my heart always. Until we c each other again. Love sister Chantay.

Steve, your mom think of you every day. I'm so glad that you knew we had your back. I'm reading Psalms 37 because I know that God has a plan. It gives me peace. You knew you wasn't suppose to be sick and I'm glad you realized that. Please wait for me.

I am deeply saddened to learn so late of Big Steve's passing. I have been searching hopelessly for years to find what I consider one of my closest friends through college at Mizzou. While I know he is in the hands of our Lord, I missed him for years and will always remember the days we had together. Especially those days in St. Louis we spent at my mom's home. While this gives me closure in my search for Steve, I know some day we shall meet again. I would love to talk to his family and learn more about Steve's life after our college years. 636-671-9356

Happy birthday Steve. You always been a wonderful brother and one I admired. People who know you are still talking about how geniune you were and how you impacted their lives in some way. You always had kind words to give and always hope the best for others. You always went out of your way to serve others.
You are an inspiration for me to keep striving to do good and to put my trust and confidence only in God. If I remain steadfast and keep God first in my life, I too will see the promises of God here on earth as well in heaven.
Your missed more than words can express.
Until I see you again, I will hold tightly to every memory I have of you in my heart.
I love you always,
Your Baby Sis Amanda

Happy birthday son. I can not believe that it's almost six months since I last heard your voice and last touched your hands. You were not a perfect person. No one is perfect except for our Lord, but you were a perfect son. I can't believe God would bless me with a son like you. I feel I did not even deserve to have a son like you. You were an extraordinary human being who was selfless. You were a light unto this dark and fallen world and you walked in the spirit. Galatians 5:22 says the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, and faithfulness. You exhibited all of these qualities. You were an angel here on earth and now you are an angel in heaven.
Every minute we shared, even when you were really ill....and as I told you... it was an honor to serve you. You were always a blessing and never a burden. If we could have switched places, I would have done that. I lived my life and I know you were not ready to go. I will always feel that your life was cut short.
Until the Lord calls me home, I will forever miss you and look forward to seeing you again. I love you as much as a heart can love.
Your Mom

I was deeply saddened when Boone informed me that Steve had passed. I have fond memories of Steve, Chantay & Amanda from way back in Linda Pollin. My thoughts and prayers are with the Harrison family during this difficult time. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. May the peace of God surround you and comfort you.

To the Harrison Family,
I was deeply saddened by the news of Steve's death. I have fond memories of our days at H.D. Woodson High School and then working after school at Wendy's with his sister Chantay trying to make some extra change for lunch. (lol)! My husband even had the chance of meeting and working with him on the force. Steve was such a kind and gentle person who will be missed by all who knew him. Please take comfort and strength knowing that he is in a better place and hold on to the memories he left behind. May God continue to bless you during this difficult time. RIP "Big Steve"!

Big Steve you will be truely missed. Now that you have been laid to rest, It's really sinking in that you are really gone. I will never hear your deep voice calling T May. At onetime I thought that you and your body was tired, because whenever I came to visit you was resting or asleep. Now as I reflect back on the time that we had with you I believe tht we didn't appreciate the fact that you was a special blessing to have in our life. Your love was genuine and we did not love you accordly. Your spirit and soul was pure that it was taken for granted. Our saying to each other was "do what you can stand". You thought that you could stand to love unconditionally without getting it back in return. Since we did not love you to our fullest you was called home, where you will recieve all the love desire. I know you are looking down and saying to us all. SEE THERE ARE NO DO OVERS. LOVE THEM WHILE THEY ARE HERE BECAUSE TOMORROW IS SO UNSURE. Big Steve continue to watch over us.

Cousin Steve,
You are already missed so very much. Knowing WITHOUT A DOUBT that you are looking down on us from heaven is the only consolation that we have. Your body is finally healed from all sickness and pain.
I remember how much time we spent together as children- Me, you, Chantay and Brett. I recall the time that you and Chantay told me and my brother that there was NO SANTA CLAUSE. Brett and I were devastated to say the least. How could this be?! With you and Chantay being the "big" cousins we believed everything you said. That memory still makes me laugh. You were truely one in a million.
Rest in peace.
Love cousin,
Monica
