I extend my personal condolences to Steve's family. As a hospice volunteer it was my honor and privilege to get to know Steve and his wife Judy during my visits to the home. I always found Steve to be gracious, involved and caring. We would have some good chats and visits. Steve impressed me as a gentle man who loved his wife and his family. My best wishes are to the members of his family at this difficult time.
