Dear Julie, Brooke, Family,
We're truly heartbroken that Steve has so suddenly been taken from you, us, the world.
Just mentioning his name (I always thought it was Howie- haha) conjures up old stories and a millions laughs, & these days our fun visits from Brooke so obviously show the joy and love of her parents but there's absolutely Always that mention of how much her dads mischievous streak comes thru in her!!
He lives on in all of you, and It gives tribute to what a kind man, father and husband he was. He, and his words, and his ways, are what you'll carry thru with you, guiding you.
It's hard to grasp he's in a better place when you feel he should be here with you... our many prayers are with you for some understanding, and to hopefully lessen some of the pain.
With the help of God,
Love,
The Mottashed Family

To Steve's wife, children and family: I am deeply sorry to learn of his passing. I worked with Steve at EEI, and because he and I were only a handful of Sox fans there, I enjoyed talking with Steve about games, etc. I know how much family meant to him; he was sure to always share fun family times when we chatted. I am sorry for your loss. May memories help you all through this difficult time. May you get comfort and strength from the love of family and friends. And until we all meet again.....
