Mr. Fox was one of my favorites. He was witty, a kind soul and he certainly cared for his students. More recently, every time we went to Marios - there he was! He remembered both Rich and I. May you rest peacefully in heaven Mr. Fox.

Steve was an awesome individual. His love of sports and education will always love with his students. He was a great friend and teammate in highschool. I will always remember his calming effect on his teammates as he played his heart out on the field.

Mr. Fox was an excellent teacher and my mentor to speech writing. His teaching led me to a great many successes that I can, without question, attribute to him. I later became a teacher with lessons that was inspired by him. I hope I was able to pay it forward. Thank you dear Mr. Fox. You will be missed.
