I only knew him from work, through most of those 30 years at HP/Digital/Compaq, but he was really special to work with. It is very sad to hear of his passing. It was a privilege to know and work with him.

Dear Meredith and Family,
I have no words to adequately express my deep sorrow for your loss. I think Helen Keller said it best: "What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us."

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Esonis family as they mourn the loss of Steve. May God's love find you and guide during this difficult time. Like many, my memories of Steve and his family are tied to youth athletics. Through his participation in our sports programs Steve touched the lives of many children, and we are all better for it. Thank you Steve.

Dear Meredith and family and Lynne,
We were so saddened to hear about Steve's passing. Many fond memories from high school days especially the "Tribe." We were blessed to have you as a groomsman in our wedding in 1975. Although time passed and we didn't see much of each other, catching up was easy to do. Thankfully we reconnected in June and September of this past year. Just know that he was very proud of all of you!
Our thought and prayers are with you all.
Fondly, Paul and Cindy Hennessey
West Boylston, Ma

Meredith, Anya, Alec, and Bryn, I am shocked and saddened by your husband/father's passing. Where he is now there is no suffering. Words cannot say how much he was loved by his family, friends, the community, and his football and baseball teams. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this very difficult time and always. May Steve rest in peace. And may each of you find comfort knowing how much he loved all of you. As he smiled, he would tell me about each of you, what was new in your lives. Meredith, Steve was so proud of your professional and personal accomplishments. His love for you, your children, and grandchildren was amazing. We have all shared so many great times together. And for these memories I am grateful. I am here for you, always. With much love, Kathy
