With deepest sympathy Vita ODonovan

I have many fond memories of Steve and Judy during our years at JHS 49 in the 1960´s. Both were terrific teachers and extraordinary persons. It is always sad to to lose someone we love but I am sure Judy and Steve´s family will be comforted and filled with pride by the memories of a true gentleman who made a difference in the lives of so many students.

My sincere condolences to the family. Rest in peace.

Stephen, you were part of our summer drama course in London (Birbeck College). I will never forget moments we share in London and New York going to the theatre.Where ever you may be thank you for being such a wonderful friend. You always remain in my heart. Yours, Montse from Barcelona (Spain)

Steve was a true Renaissance Man who guided me through a rough time of my life, enhanced my joy for reading, and a love for Oysters You will truly be missed my dear friend!!

Uncle Steve will be greatly missed and remembered for his sense of humor, intellect, and care for his family. I loved him very much.

Mr.Kufless was my 7th grade teacher in JH 49 - was a great teacher evidenced by memories of him all these many years later. May he rest in peace.

I learned a lot having him for a teacher. First day of class.... "I´ll buy pizza for the entire class if you can spell sarsaparilla." Well played.. No one got it correct. Rest in Peace
