Steve was a joy to know and reflected the very best of the FSU administration. He was a go-to resource for thoughtful and informed insights on university operations. He represented his faculty colleagues with much distinction. I was privileged to have known him during my service in the University System.

My condolence to the Steve Edwards family for the loss of their father.

Lucky to have known him for the 26 years I was a staff member of the department.

My sincerest condolences to the Edwards-Carothers family. As previous messages have noted Dr. Edwards was a gentleman of integrity and kindness. His leadership played an important part of shaping the FSU that we know today. I knew him mostly through his role as Dean of the Faculties where he served for many years as an advisor and helped guide me, as well as other new faculty, through the trial that is the tenure process. His kind words of encouragement and advice truly made a difference in...

Edwards Family: The world has lost another great person. Having grown up with, gone to school with and my husband having worked as a Fireman under Chief Steve in the Quincy Fire Department, I knew this family well. They were all so smart and caring about their friends and community. Steve, jr always took the time to send a message to all the families in Quincy that lost a loved one. He never forgot his roots. A special message to Kay and Melanie. Jean Trim
