Stephen Byron Shohet

Steve, Fred Schroeder, and I were roommates at Harvard for four years. During that time, I had the pleasure of knowing both Steve and Gerri and even taking part in their wedding. Two finer people I never met. Their enthusiastic approach to life, their smiles that accompanied the joy they always found in simple adventures, and their scholarship accompanied everything they did.

Hi Grace, I am so sorry for the loss of your Dad! He sounded like a great man! I wish I could have met him! Sending love and hugs to you and yours! Ro

Best wishes to the whole Shohet family. Our thoughts are with you. This obituary describes far better than anything we could add Stephen's infectious energy and broad ranging curiosity.

Sending deepest condolences to the entire Shohet family at this sad time. With fond memories and blessings to all.

My good buddy Steve, and Geraldine as well, both of you rest in peace together. For me Steve was the ultimate gentleman and scholar, a true renaissance man, a cherished friend, and possessor of a boundless childlike curiosity.

We send our condolences on your loss, with fond memories of happy days we shared with your family in Newton - including a special boating and ice cream day on Buzzard´s Bay. We remember Steve´s exceptional personality, well captured in this memorial notice. May his memory always be a blessing for you.
