Not sure what to say?

Steve was my Sigma Chi big brother in the mid 70s. He was a real inspiration to me to always strive to be a good person. I’ve been off Facebook for a few months so just found out about his passing. My wife Shawna and I send our sympathy.

Dear Jennifer, I was so very saddened to hear of Steve’s passing. The world lost a wonderful man. I remember with great fondness your wedding day at St. Paul’s in Jackson, MI. We bumped into Steve a few years at a Detroit Red Wings game and I will always see his beautiful smile when I recall that chance and brief reunion!
I pray you God’s healing and peace in the days, months and years ahead, Jennifer.
I send my love and cherish my memories of our times together in Jackson. ❤❤

Steve was an exceptional human being. As a Sigma Chi fraternity brother over 40 years ago I have nothing but wonderful memories. Steve's light will be missed.

We were so sorry to here of the passing of Steve especially after such a long illness. I am glad to have worked with Steve at both the AA News and the Cit Pat. He will be missed. Sandy Eisele and Jack Stubbs.

Sending best thoughts and wishes. Steve gave me my first journalism job as a sports clerk in Battle Creek. That job led to a long career in the industry, which helped me see the country and the world. I feel blessed to have the opportunity that Steve gave me.
