To the family, May our Lord God wrap his loving arms around you in this time of need. Steve was a friend and classmate of mine-SCHS 1963. He will be greatly missed.

May God's presence comfort you in a special way during this loss of Steve. I remember Steve from our school days as a young man who stood out; always smiling, friendly to everyone, hard worker, good athlete, and always surrounded by friends. He will be greatly missed.
