Dear Mary, Ann, Mike and Dick, What an amazing and inspiring life Steve had...and an exceptional role model. You are all so fortunate that he was a part of your lives. I have fond memories of Steve while playing at Ann's house when we were kids, and my mother always said that he had movie star looks! Our families go back a long way ~ our grandparents were the best of friends, and Steve's mother was my Girl Scout Leader. She was a renegade adventurer, no doubt influential in Steve's passion...

To Mary and family:
I have several fond memories of Steve when he returned to Quincy and joined the Quincy Bicycle Club. His love of adventure and worldly knowledge was an inspiration to me and other riders.
I was able to chat with him at an Easter Egg Hunt this past spring and I was so happy that I was able to catch up. When hearing about his death, I was shocked and saddened.
Please accept my condolences and know that Steve was one cool guy.
