Steven today is 10 months since your passing. Somedays it seems like a lifetime ago and somtimes it seems like yesterday. Your dad and I miss you very much. Especially when I see him heading out to the boat and remembering all the great times that the two of you shared on it. Your time together was far too short. Yet the precious memories that were made will last a lifetime. I thank God for the time that you had together and how you and he handled the past and left it so far behind. You often told him that "the past was the past and it was time to make a new start." As I plan his party I feel sad that you physically won't be there, but I know that you will be in spirit. Though we mourn your passing we find comfort knowing that you are no longer suffering. We love and miss you every single day. You battled this horrible disease every day with dignity and fortitude. That was such an inspiration to me not to sweat the small stuff. Until we meet again please be our guardian angel.
Love and miss you,
Barbara

Steven,
I wish we knew each other better, I wish our children knew each other. But over the years things happen and tragically until something like your death happens, it's to late. You sounded like a great husband, father and person. And I'm sorry I never got a chance to experience that. You and your family are forever in my thoughts.

You placed your hand on my heart and you told me that you would never leave me because you would always be right here in my heart. You are right, you know. Real love does not ever die. You may be gone, but no one or nothing can ever take "us" from me. We were the best team ever! I carry us in my heart.
You were such a gentle, happy, loving, and carefree soul. Every picture that I have has you smiling and most of the time you are waving to the camera.
I wonder how anyone can be happy all the time like you were, then I remember that you always made sure to make everyone feel special and you knew that a smile and a wave would do that. I am watching the children and you are right once more, they are so there for me and (though they miss you terrribly stronger than I thought they would be.
I have to say that I am putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward, but my steps often seem so slow and labored, and the skies seem very dark and gray. I read that "when you're going through hell, keep walking." Just so you know I will not linger here. I know that the sun will once again shine, and I will once again only think of the good times.
You were such a gift. One day with you would have been such a gift, one week, one year....we had many! I will always remember that!
til we meet again my love.........

My dear husband its so hard without you trying my best but as the days go by I am still missing you so.I want to come home after work and tell you about my day then I realize you are not there and it hurts so much.We all got cheated and I am still so angry I wish I could turn back time and life was back to normal for all of us. I never thought about living the rest of my life without you and Im forced to do that and its so not easy to just go on. I will love you forever and keep you in my heart till the day I join you.Rest in peace Steve Love your wife.

We thought of you with love today.
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And the days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keep sake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in out heart.

Dear Steven,
As I sit here I can't believe that today is one month since your passing. You gave a brave and valiant fight against the cancer. The only comfort I can find is that you are no longer suffering and are at peace with your mom. I visit your grave and talk to you as if you are still here. But when I think of it I feel that you truly are still here in spirit watching over your loved ones. You were my step-son but you were so much more than that to me. I loved you as if you were my own child. You were more than a son to your father. You were his best friend, his co-worker and his confidante. He misses you so deeply. They say time heals all wounds but this is such a great loss to all of us. You always made me feel like more than a step-mom but a real part of your life. I promise to take the best care that I possibly can of your father. Mary, Kelsey and Little Steven are in my thoughts and prayers daily. It is hard for them but I know that you will guide them from above. I found a poem by an unknown author which I think is something that you would say to your wife and children to comfort them. It is as follows:
All Is Well
Death is nothing at all,
I have only slipped way into the next room, I am I and you are you,
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.
Call me by my old familiar name,
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used to.
Put no difference in your tone,
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow, laugh as we always laughed at the little things together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was, let it be spoken without the trace of shadow on it.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same as if ever was, there is no broken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near,
just around the corner.
All Is Well
Steven I love you very much and will never forget you. You were an inspiration to me to live every day and never let the trials and tribulations get you down.
Sleep peacefully my "son"
Love,
Barbara
forever in my heart

Dear uncle steven
I loved the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holding me I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still she'd a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you
You used to call me your dreamer
And now I'm living out my dream
Oh how I wish you could see
Everything that's happening for me
I'm thinking back on the past
It's true that time is flying but too fastI know you're in a better place, yeah
But I wish that I could see your face, oh
I know you're where you need to be
Even though it's not here with me
love alway

Dear Mary, Kelsey and Steven,
I wish there were something I could do or say to fill the hole in your hearts right now but I can't. Pictures, memories and the beautiful children you have Mary, will hopefully help you through the hard times. We can always remember passing your house and Steven would always stop and say hello to us no matter what. Someday I guess we will all understand why such crazy things happen in this life. For now hold on to as much hope, faith, and memories that you can and know someday we will all end up together. We are not far if you need us.

Mary i want to tell you im very sorry for steve passing away it is even sadder knowing how much of a great person he was inside and out.He kept you safe when you was young and made sure you got treated like a lady at all times.I couldnt have asked for a better brother in law then steve.Steve was the best father a kid could ever have.He was the most independant person i ever knew and always mad sure everything he did was the best it could be.I am so glad to have all those priceless memories of him.He was very strong and would never ask for sympathy thats what you have to keep in mind he wants you to be strong and remember him as the real person he was always joking and smiling.I know nothing can ease your pain but please just try to remember all the great times you two had.Please always remember that i am here for you always....Love always your brother Huggy...

Dear Mary,Kelsey,and Little Steven, I am so sorry about the loss of such a special father and husband I miss him very much,but my pain can not compare to all of yours. Mary,you and Steven had such a strong love. The way you took care of Steven,Mary amazed me,always with such grace,never complaining,never saying why me? Not because you are my daughter but you are truely,a angel on earth,honey,I am so proud of the mother,wife,daughter,and friend you are. Steven,loved his family,he was a very strong man and fought a tough battle. Now you must be strong and make him proud of you It is not going to be easy,but alway know that I am not far away, all you have to do is call and I will be there,and when you need to be alone I will give you your space,I love you,Honey and I wish I could take your pain away. Always know that Steven lives in your heart,God did not want him to suffer anymore nor did you. Remember Honey,when Gramma passed away what you told me that she was in heaven watching over me,please find comfort from your own advise,I did. Talk to Steven he will hear you,in time you will find comfort knowing he no longer feels pain. Well, honey, I know,it seems so unfair,and it is. Remember Steven was a very strong and courageous man,he would not want you to quit,...remember him always in your heart. He lives always Kelsey and Steven are here and they are part of Steven so when you feel you need to hug Steve give them a extra hug. Please be strong and remember I love you,and will always be there for you God bless all of you . Always im ouy hearts and prayers, Mom and Phill

Although I never got to meet you, I heard the strength in your voice over the phone. Mary painted a beautiful picture of the wonderful man, husband and father you were. Life was too short for you but you left a memorable quality behind that will never be forgotten. Jeanne Wagner Kent OR

Dear Mary, Kelsy and Steven
We lit a candle for all of you, at our home, next to our Saints that have been passed through our family.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you, the children and your wonderful supportive family. You are blessed.
This is a difficult time for all of you, and there is not much anyone can say to ease your pain, except God needed Steven more.
It's been over a decade that our parents have passed, the urning never goes away, the only thing that helps is "time" and it takes a long time.
Steven's spirit and memories will live through you and the children. On good days remember to smile and on a not-so-good day, take care of yourself and talk to Steven, he's listening and watching over you and the children, he will help you. We believe Steven's received his wings into the gates of heaven and eternal peace.
God Bless all of you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, ""I welcome you.""
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......""My day was not in vain.""
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
