Not sure what to say?

I am so sad to see this. I knew Steve from First American Title and will always cherish the many time he would come to my office to tell me a story or a joke. He was an amazing man. Paul Richards

You will be missed Uncle Steve. Thanks for being so much fun when I was growing up. You always could make me smile. The reunion in heaven I´m sure was great!! Sending love and hugs to our family.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. He was such a nice person always pleasant.

I am Bobbie's sister, Karen. I remember Steve and Bobbie's wedding. She was so beautiful and they were so happy. Steve was wonderful to Bobbie, so patient, kind and loving. They loved ball games, their vacations and family gatherings. They would come to Dad and Renaun's house and Steve and dad would swap jokes and funny stories and just laugh and laugh. He did love to sing, he would say, "remember this one"........... He loved the Carpenter's songs. One day over to their house he sang...

Steve is my first cousin and for many years we shared memories and music on our Grandpa Craven's birthday on or near April 14. He was one who always added an extra level of "life" to our annual 'Cousins Party'. We are a very small group now and will miss being together. I certainly send my condolences and family love to the family. Richard Dahl

I've known Steve for 40 years and he was truly one in a million. He knew how to turn difficulties into positivity. The obituary mentions his gunshot wound, but how many people turn such tragedy into positivity and bonding opportunities? You have never truly bonded with someone until they have invited you to touch the soft spot on their head (where there should have been skull). Steve always had a smile on his face and a compliment on his tongue. Steve loved. He loved and was proud of...

Steve was the kind of person who made life's difficulties bearable. I changed jobs and moved so it has probably been 55 years since I last saw him but I still remember his beautiful smile, corny jokes, and inexhaustible patience. I grew up listening to popular music through the 1950's and 1960's and I think he is the only person I know who recognized the words to more songs than I did.

I knew Steve from First American Title. He was such a sweet and funny man! Always had a smile and a joke for everyone. Sending love and hugs to his family during this time!
