I am so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. I have known Judy and Steve since my Eureka teaching years and they were always a power couple--managing what life threw at them with grace and strength.

We love you.

Steve was such a kind man. He came to every Eureka High School Art Show and made me feel appreciated as a teacher. I'm happy he was a part of my life and workplace. ~ Diane Bashirian, Art Teacher, EHS

Deepest condolences to Judy and the rest of Steve's family. I feel honored to have known and worked with Steve for many years. I have felt the absence of his warmth and humor since he retired from SLU Law.

Steve was a good man and helped a lot of people. We met in Law School in 1973. He always new how to have a good time. A real Billiken Fan.
