Not sure what to say?

Steve was one of the finest men I ever met. I met him while he worked at Cids when we were in our 20s during one of several of my summers in Cape May. He was a kind and gentle man who always treated me with respect. I was so shy but Steve put me at ease. I have never forgotten him and began to search for him on the web in the past year. Im sorry he passed away so early. Im sure it was a devastating loss for family, friends and colleagues. It was an honor for me to have known him as I did.

My belated condolences to Steve's family.
