My Gruncle Steven was an amazing friend, uncle, and man. He made an impression on every life he touched. He was full of passionate opinions, a crisp sense of humor, and the protective spirit of a warrior. His stories would ignite your imagination and make your sides ache. His hugs were powered by a huge heart that will always be remembered. My children, Leena Rhone (13) and Maddox Bergh (4), will miss the integral presence of this man in their lives. May your flame always burn bright as you...
