Your memory is still with us,
Your presence is still felt,
Your voice still echoes the hallways.

Our home is not the same without you,
Your new home must be blessed,
for God only fill it with the souls of the very best.

Steve, I miss not seeing you at church,your big smile when I'd walk in, and of coarse your teasing and kidding around. But you had a serious side too.
I thank you for your friendship and all
the advice you gave me and inspiration.
I know your home now with Jesus, and that gives me and others great comfort knowing that.
My thoughts and prayers go out to your family.

A big Teddy bear, a protector, a second big brother...(lots of teasing)someone whom you could always have a good time with, these are a few of the things that define Steve to me. This is not goodbye, but a see you later. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. May God bless them and hold them in these difficult days.

I will always remember his big cheesy smile and his giant bear hugs. What a sweet man and dear friend he was. I'm sure he is smiling in heaven and giving Jesus one of his big hugs. Thank you Jean for sharing your beautiful son with us.

A consummate professional and a great person. His finger was always on the pulse of company goings-on; yet he always made time for a friendly check-in or a good ribbing.
He left us far too soon, still his impact on everyone was great. He did much and touched many with the time he was given.
