Steve Foster

Sorry to learn that Steve has passed. We were friends while both art students at Brockport College. back in the 1970s. We
spent many good times together. My condolences to his wife Dawn, brother Jeffrey and Steve's parents . Steve's life ended much too soon.

Dawn,
Even weeks later, this awful news has left me feeling as if an anvil has landed on my chest and I've been unable to take a good clean breath since. I'm heartbroken, to say the least.

I can't think of anybody I've met in my lifetime who wouldn't have gained from knowing this fine man...and I've many memories to look back upon with great fondness. We met when Steve saw my car in a parking lot, and came into my credit union looking for the owner. He walked over to me and...

Dawn,

I am still having trouble processing Steve's sudden passing. I guess I consider him as someone who would always be there.
When I was his friend's little sister, he was there.... in his VW bug rolling his long anti-establishment hair up in the window. Then a few years later, back from Grad school, he stopped in to see my parents (Fletcher was not there) My father thought that he had gone to finishing school or something. Steve was so different, poised, calm, well...

Dear Dawn,

I'm so sorry and saddened to receive this news about Steve's death. My deepest condolences and sympathies.

I knew Steve only since last year, when I bought his Alfa Romeo. Such a warm, positive being and so expert without ego. I had hoped to be Steve's friend for a long time.

Dawn, I am so sorry for your loss.

Dawn, I can't tell you how sorry I am to hear about Steve. Seb and I are in shock and our hearts go out to you. Please don't hesitate to let us know if there is anything we can do for you.
You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love you, Seb and Kathy Burritt

Dawn,

Death is Nothing At All
Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away to the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other,
That, we still are.

Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way
which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play,...

Dawn,

This one of the hardest things to understand..... and a great loss to us all. I have always enjoyed the story by Richard Bach, "Johnathan Livingston Seagull" and his view of life. I am sure Steve shared that view and think of Steve still soaring, trying to learn even more. Wishing you great peace.

Dear Dawn…it has taken me a while to process all of this about Steve’s passing. I spoke with him recently and will greatly miss our conversations. We could talk about cars, art, dogs, church, and it was so uplifting. You could hear his smile over the phone. Every week I would look for him to see what tie he would be wearing, all of them were either fun or colorful. But then that is who Steve was and is in spirit; fun, colorful, and a very good guy. If I could pick a brother, Steve would be...
