Steven,
My loving son and friend, you left us way too soon. You will always be in my heart, my thoughts, my prayers. I am thankful for all of the memories I have and that I was able to spend time with you in February and that we spoke on Thursday evening, 25 July.

My last words to Steven were how I ended every phone call with him, “I love you Steven.” I miss you so much Steven. Rest in peace son.

Dear Ellen,
I was so sad to read about Steven's accident. It was a coincidence that we ran into each other a few months ago at the bagel shop. Your family was one that I remembered with fondness, even after 18 years. I recall sitting with you, Jennifer and Steven at Hope Church so many years ago. Please know that Steven's life was a blessing and he will live forever in the hearts and memories of those who were so very fortunate to know him.

It is extremely sad to hear this news. I had the pleasure of sitting next to Steve during drafting & architecture classes in high school. Everyday we would discuss what game to play to pass the time. No matter what we chose, he always had one of those memorable type laughs that I will never forget. You will be missed.
