Not sure what to say?

After 50 years, I wanted to know how Steve was doing. I was a Franklin graduate with Steve in 1972 out of Boston. Our very close friend, Taylor, was a bush pilot and was killed in an airplane crash in Alaska a few years after our graduation. I was shocked to learn of Steve's death. I should have found him much sooner. He was a great friend during that time. Rest in peace, Steve. You also, Taylor.

Rest in Peace Stephen. Great memories shared back in the days of innocence. Beatles, unlocked doors at home and long-lasting friends. We were blessed.

Steve and I formed a long lasting friendship through the NHPPA. We helped each other on various assignments. We shared our wedding war stories. And always had a way that we developed to control a monthly meeting..... I will miss seeing him or at least chatting with him. He was a friend, that I always enjoyed spending time with. May you rest in peace, Steve. Here's a round of applause until we meet again.

I had the opportunity to work with Steve as a Valet at Elliot Hospital and enjoyed every day I worked with him. He was an excellent communicator with the people he helped. He exhibited a very high ethical standard. We had a number of things in common, sports, family and the love of good music, I did not get a chance to visit Steve while he was at Elliot, but I was able to take him to some of the tests he had. I will always think of him when I pass the Valet podium outside the hospital.

I love you more...O' bro O' mine❣

Steve and I shared a 50-year journey together. He would talk with me while waiting for my brother Denny and we developed our own friendship. It blossomed and we were married in August of 1972. With great joy, we welcomed two children into our lives. We journeyed together in the joys of raising our children. Unfortunately, the years took their toll and we found as we grew that we grew apart. Though we divorced in October of 1992, we remained friends. We stood together and watched our...

"To Steve's children, grandchildren, and all his loved ones ~ I will truly miss Steve as my neighbor. Already I feel his absence, not seeing him walking in and out, with his friendly smile and pleasant conversations. May you all find comfort in your memories of Steve. ~ Cindy Sheehan, Friend and Neighbor

Uncle Steve will be greatly missed. He had a love for life like no other and was always smiling. Family gatherings will never be the same. My condolences to his children, immediately family members, and his friends.

My friendship with Steve started in the Boy Scouts, blossomed in our Bishop Bradley high school years, and lasted a lifetime. I believe such early friendships play a significant part in defining one's personality and perspectives on life which are carried into adulthood, and in that regard Steve has always been a part of me. Although we lived on opposite coasts for over 50 years, I know I shall miss him dearly. My wife Daphne and I wish to offer our heartfelt condolences to Steve's...
