Steve was the ultimate gracious professional! I am grateful for the many years he helped guide our teams through the FIRST LEGO League challenges. His service to the children was valued and appreciated!

Steve was an amazing leader with the scouts. We learned so much from him and we always appreciated his calm leadership and his special brand of humor. He was a great mentor and a great man. We will miss him. Sending our love and condolences to his family. Our sympathies in your loss of dear Steve.
Sincerely,
Mark & Amy Crawford
