Steve had an awesome way of making those around him laugh especially when it was not a time for laughter. He made the days at Miltons Sparrow Road Fun. Smile on Steve!

JoAnne -
At times like these, it's so hard to find the right words. Just know that Steve is at peace. If you need anything, let me know. Steve was a very kind and loving person, and I'll always remember when Steve, you and I stayed up all night and played guitars and sang until the sun came up. We all will be just a little bit "happier" because he played a song for us, and we all will miss his "GOD-GIVEN" talent of bringing music to our hearts. Debbie and I have you and Steve's family in our prayers.
