Steve Avelleyra

I just learned of Steve’s passing today when trying to reach him on his cell # l had for him; hoping to catch up after losing touch for several years. Last talked with him shortly after his relocation to FL, and prior to that- an Orioles game on his birthday 2011.
My very sincere condolences to his family and partner Robert.

Steve & l were close friends in Baltimore. He taught me to Box, and we’d practice together once or twice a month; ‘Boxer’ was my nickname for Steve. I...

I'm so sorry he was an amazing man...

My condolences to the Avelleyra family and all who loved Steve.

I knew Steve at UMaine and for many years to follow sharing adventures on the Maine coast, in Dayton, FL, and New Year's in NYC. They are memories I hold dear.

Rest well Steve. Thank you for the laughter.

Peace,

Sharon Hay

Steve was a very good property manager to work for he was fair and funny and nice to talk with.

Buffo,
Thanks for the memories!
Love, Buffa

I'm so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. My two brothers and I grew up with all of you and have many good memories. May God rest his soul and bring comfort and peace to your family.

Steve filled any room he walked into with laughter and energy. Such a good friend who always made others feel welcome and accepted. Time spent with Steve was time spent in the sunshine. You are missed Buffo.
