Your memory, your life lessons, they have been so ingrained in my every day life. I wish that we had a video of you teaching our mood and ethics class. There are things that are happening in today's world, that realistically speaking, were you still here, I would have sought you out for guidence. We miss your strong presence of being. We miss the lessons that you taught, we miss your laughter, we miss your smile, simply put, we miss you. 8 years is 8 minutes to long. May your Memory be Eternal

Thank you Steve for your constant words of love and encouragement. I still remember you coming to the house watching the Colts and Broncos playing and talking smack the whole time. We called you "Powerful" because of your love for Hope and your persistence to advocate for everyone. We love you forever and you are one in a million. Clint &Dinah Ross

I am Sorry about the Loss of Steve Lesko He has been a friend of the Disabilities Arena and we will be missing him Dearly and I have almost Planning to have lunch with him for the Family Stephen Lesko I Know losing a Family Member and you will be thinking of him and what he has done for you over the Years

Steve was a champion of taking of people who needed a little extra care or support, Though I had worked in the disability community for some time, it wasn't until the late 2000s that I got to work directly with Steve. Steve had a wit that would light up whatever room he was in. Steve wasn't just good at what he did, he was also a good person to be around. So long Steve as you transition to your next journey. You will be missed but your legacy will live in.

Karen.....so very sorry for your loss. Didn't know Stephen, but heard so many good things about him.
