Steve was driving his El Camino. I remember thinking how cool this was, it's a car and a truck. We all got checked in to the hunting unit and headed out into the marsh. The excitement I felt as a new hunter out with these two seasoned vets is indescribable. My brother headed off somewhere in behind us in...

So sorry to hear of Steves passing. Oscar and I had many fun, wonderful memories and CDF parties with Steve. Much love to the family
