Stephen Sawyer Sr.

My heartfelt condolences to Stephen's family.

I treasured Stephen's friendship since the first time he sat in my class years ago, along with his subsequent visits to my Gateway Community College seminars and classes. I will treasure the memory of our ongoing meetings, of his academic and scholarly discussions--his erudite correspondences, his insatiable desire to learn, and his authentic search for knowledge.

We were scheduled to meet again this month -- so I am shocked to...

I will miss you DR. Sawyer

Steve was a gentleman and a scholar. His insight into education has made me a better teacher on both the secondary and college levels. He will be missed and surely remembered...Joe Corcoran

I had the pleasure of meeting Steve at the McCann Natatorium where I would see him 2-3 times a week. Yes, a gentleman he was. I was rooting for him to have the heart surgery he was anticipating, and figured that's why I haven't seem him lately. But I heard this morning from another swimmer that Steve had passed and I'm very saddened by that. But he seemed like a very positive soul who will no doubt do well in his future. My condolences to you, Maureen.
