STEPHEN W. RIGGS

I recently learned of Steve's passing and am very sorry. I first met Steve at one of our band's shows, and ever since have greatly enjoyed our discussions, especially about skiing. Steve was kind, considerate, and very easy to talk to. I loved hearing about his ski trips, and was hoping to be able to ski with him some time. I will surely miss him. My deepest sympathy to Steve's family.

I am very sorry to hear of Steve's passing. He was a real freind and I enjoyed visiting at just about every "Sturcrazie" show in town. He was a devoted fan of the band and very inspirational to me personaly with my music.He always had a kind word and a great sense of humor.

Steve was a neighbor of ours on Pomeroy Avenue, Pittsfield, Mass. He was always so good natured, friendly, and was always available to help Jim when asked to be the helping hand for many of Jim's handyman projects. He loved the goodies that I made and would always thank me for making them. We are so sad to think that his life has been taken away. Our condolences to his Mother and family. We will add him and them to our prayers. Jim and Anne Russo

I am very saddened to learn of Steve's passing. I had the pleasure of coaching Steve at Mt. Mansfield in hockey. It was fun to watch him skate and to share time with him. Steve will be remembered as one of the finest skaters I've ever seen in Vermont hockey. A sentiment shared by all his teammates. I was blessed to have coached and know him.
