Steve (that is how I knew him as) taught art at my high school. I was in his class for just one of those years. That was 20+ years ago. I disliked school then and even more when I look back at it. I can count on one hand the number of teachers that changed my life for the better and Steve may have elicited the greatest of those changes. I thought about him today and it’s what brought my heart to break here now. It breaks because in the back of my mind I always thought I would track him down one day in a messy toronto loft somewhere and show him my beautiful life. I’d say: “see, look what striving for compassion, creativity, empathy and selflessness can get you. Conventional philosophy sells us short! I did this and you showed me I could.” I felt he never got the credit he deserved for who he was but maybe that comes with the territory. A few school years is precious little contact but I was forever changed by it. Maybe I don’t even know him that well but I loved him dearly and still do. My first son was born 6 days before Steve’s passing. What I learned from dear Steve will be demonstrated to him. Condolences to his friends and family.

I remember being his student and having the utmost fun. He was a real, honest, and philosophical teacher. We all really loved his class, and I would skip mine to go to his

Long long ago and far away when Stephen first came to Vancouver I met him and in the short peroid of time he was here I was able to show him my Vancouver and he turned me onto wonderful foreign music and his art. Later while visiting in TO while there on business I stayed with him in a giant Loft Warehouse he had full of orchids. always a Bohemian the bathtub was in the middle of the living room and the bathroom had no door. He always reminded me of magic and the power of Dreams. Rest well my artist man.. Jennifer

My most profoundly felt condolences to Steph's family and many friends! He was a beautiful man with a sensitive, generous and embracing spirit! The void he leaves behind is immense! While I must let him go to his Creator, he lives forever in my heart!! Rest in Peace dear Steph and may Our Lord grant you Memory Eternal and Life in His Paradise!
