Steve was a very talented guitarist and great person. It was good to know him and the Ronyak's as neighbors while growing up. He will be missed. -- Ronald B. Krisko

I knew Steve since he was born. He was an endearing little boy. Sensitive and kind, Just like his Mother. He was one of my mother´s guardian angels and I will never forget his love for her. His musical talent reminded me of so much of his father. He will play music in my heart forever. In honor of his love for music, our family has made a donation in his memory to the Cleveland institute of Music. May it bring joy to someone who will love it as much as Steve did. We will miss him and all my love to your family. Gail and Win.
