Drake Family,
We so sorry to hear of your Dads passing! From all the stories people posted, he loved you all very much! You can't ask for anything more that that!! We will keep him and all of you in our thoughts and prayers!!

So sorry to hear about the loss of your dear father. He was a beautiful man inside and out. I have wonderful memmories of your dad packing the station wagon full of kids and taking us to amusement parks. He was kind and generous and a beautiful person. God be with you all and cherish the great memmories. You are in my thoughts and prayers...I love the Drake family. Judie (Donatelli) Burkley

Steve was honestly the funniest, healthiest older man that I have ever had the pleasure of having cross my path. He was always making me laugh, he swam everyday, he walked around the mall with his friends, he loved my mom's little dog and he loved his family. I even think he loved me, and I wasn't his family, not by blood. Steve, I love you, I always will. Say hello to my mom and tell her that I miss her. I know you were afraid to leave your family, but you're with your wife now, and that...

Our condolences to the Drake family. I remember Uncle Steve taking us to the bowling alley for the first time when the family visited us in Pa. (i was just a little kid)! Our family has gone bowling many times since then. We are glad that Steve and Mary Fran are together again, and that Steve is not suffering any longer. May God Bless the entire Drake Family.
