What a nice guy.. Was friends with him at Miami Jackson. I remember him talking about his music.

Met Steve, Lee and the rest of the band at The Place in North Miami when we were all teenagers. What a great band, and so many fond memories. They always ended the night with Daddy's Home, by, I think Shep and the Limelights. Steve was an unforgettable guy. Always so calm, smiling and even tempered.

Miss you. Miss your music. the world has lost a great musician. Rest well my friend.

I played with Dr T and the Undertakers during the late 60s. we were all friends with Steve and Lee Tiger and played many gigs with them. Lee was playing a left hand guitar while Steve was belting out the vocals. I think the bandback then was called Peach. a guy named Earnie was the lead vocal at that time. They use to sing 16 Candles and bring the house down!

Met Stephen at one of the Festivals we always enjoyed going to with my then mother-in-law Francis Quinn. He was always kind and enjoyable to be around. I have a picture of Stephen holding my first born son Donnie about 1984 or 1985. I am blessed to have known Stephen and to listen to his music and see some of his wonderful art. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.
