Gina, I am so saddened by Steve´s passing. Especially because I just saw you guys at Italian fest downtown and Steve gave me a big hug. I am so glad that I got to see Steve that night. There are special people that walk among us and Steve was one of them. I´m glad that I knew him.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. He was a very caring gentleman with all that knew him. My condolences to his family.

I had the pleasure of working with Steve. He was always the gentlemen, he brought enthusiasm to each discussion, and always found a way to let everyone see the positive side of things. That smile of his was a constant and it brought a warmth to the room. I am very sorry for your loss. Nick Gicale

Absolutely devastating to lose such an incredible human! As cliche as it may sound - Steve was truly one of a kind! His zest for life was indescribable, only to be understood by anyone who ever had the fortune to meet him. His love for his family was undeniable. We always talked about Gina and the boys before we ever spoke a word of insurance or our work lives. Steve made the world a brighter place!

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

Gina, Nikolas and Salvatore, Please accept my sincere and heartfelt sympathy for your loss. Steve was a good man, and I always enjoyed having the opportunity to speak with him. Rest in peace my friend. Len Gass

Losing Steve is a heartbreaking loss - both as a co-worker and as a friend. He brought warmth, humor, and compassion into every day we worked together. I'll always be grateful for the memories we shared and the support he gave so freely. My thoughts are with his family and all who loved him.

To the Saunders Family - My thoughts and prayers to you all in this difficult time. Steve was a gentleman and a compassionate human being and he will be missed by everyone who knew him. He created deep relationships everywhere he went. I had the honor of working together with him for the Rochester CPCU chapter many years ago and enjoyed catching up with him at insurance events over the years.

Our son jr, your mother & i loved you, gina, nikolas & salvatore with all of our hearts. May our great & wonderful God bring comfort & salvation to all of us who mourn Stephen's passing. I love you jr dad
