I remember the last time I saw you. I was a little girl. They told me there was a surprise at the door and it was you! You were saying goodbye to everyone and I remember being sooo mad at you because I couldn´t go to the beach with you. I never thought it was gonna be the last time. You were like an uncle to me. My family loved you. I can´t believe it´s been so long. Life´s not been the same, I´m almost now as old are you were when you left earth. Miss you.

I’ve been thinking of you so much brother, and I can’t tell you how badly I miss you! I don’t have you or brat to talk to and it’s crazy for me to deal with my 2 best friends are gone and I can’t do anything about it. I love you so much and know that you would be a huge part of Braden’s life if you could. He is a Vinemont Eagle just like my son Juls, and it’s pretty cool to think that they are in school together when you wrote me that letter when I was in Iraq and you was becoming a father, and they end up at the same school. Anyways I miss you brother and I can still hear your voice.
Love you!

I miss hearing your voice I miss giving you advice that you don't listen to. I miss the stories you tell. I miss sharing gossip with you. I MISS YOU and I don't know what I am suppose to do. It's hard to go on day to day.

I'm a friend of Danny & Vicki and my daughter, Katie Maynard, went to school with your sons Michael and Bradley and I know several of the Steele Family members. I just wanted you to know I'm praying for you and your family to find comfort and peace in this time of sorrow and trials. May God Richly comfort each of you.

My heart felt prayers go out to you and your family. It is a tremdous loss of a young man whom I had the privilege meet. I must say I have rarely met any one who could natrually project an ora of warmth, love and sincerity as he did. He was a happy, vibrant, caring, loving and generous person with all he came in contact with, especially the children whom all loved him. May you and yours find closure and comfort.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

The death of Michael came to a shock for me. I hadn't talk to him in a long time. He called a year ago to say he was sorry for the death of my little sister (to him he knew as "litle one" or Kateah). I want you to know how truly sorry I am. My thoughts and prayers have gone out for you. Losing a loved one isn't easy. I know first handed. The only thing that can get you through it is God and prayers from other.

My husband and I have just lost our son, age 30, on Father's day this year. It is the hardest thing we have ever went through. My heart goes out to you. You will be in our prayers. The road is hard, but with the love and prayers of friends and family members you will get through. May God travel each day with you to bring peace. God bless you and your family. Joe and Lynn Crow
