Steven Dale Fosler

One year later and it's gone fast and still just as unbelievable that Steve has died. He fought the good fight for many years with strength and honor. I hope Mark is doing well and it must be tough. Being in another state and physically separated has perhaps made the loss a bit better. Just can't talk or email him any more. Still in my thoughts and mind a year later. Lots of memories-all good. Thinking of Steve's family & hope they are doing as well as could be expected. Miss you good...

Steve was one of my best friends in college, but I didn't learn of his passing until I read of it today in the Nebraska Wesleyan alumni magazine. He was kind, soft-spoken, and had a wry sense of humor. I hadn't seen him in several years. I wish I had stayed in touch with him better.

Steve was my boss and mentor for 4 years in Portland, but more than that I considered him a dear friend. He hired me fresh out of college and I quickly learned how he was also midwestern-er and had a unique way of making new Portlanders feel welcomed and accepted. There are so many things that made Steve special, his warm smile, infectious sense of calmness, and the stories he would tell when he opened up. I feel lucky to have witnessed that often. I will always hold the memories of you dear...

Steve was amazing fella with an incredibly huge heart. I was lucky to spend 10 yrs as Steve´s Strength Training coach and we moved mountains together in this gym. He was always so happy to be there at Reign (gym) and I could tell it was a 2nd home to him with how empowered he felt. I will miss this man and our time spent reaching his goals (Which he always achieved) and most of all our friendship. My condolences to Mark. Rest easy Mondo(Steve) your friend Joshua. (He called me Toro)

I had the privilege of working with Steve for 2 years and was always impressed by his calm resolve. No matter how pressing the situation he would face it in the same manner, often disarming those on the receiving end. Sketching out design ideas and working through design problems was a definite strong suit, and where he seemed most happy. I will remember those days fondly. May you have many sharpened pencils, markers, and plenty of sketch paper at your disposal in heaven.

I met Steve through my brother in law in the early 80´s. When I think of Steve, I remember a very kind, thoughtful man with a ready smile and quiet but keen sense of humor. My thoughts and prayers go out for his family and friends.

It's taken me a while to leave a message as Steve's death isn't fully processed yet. We last spoke on Thurs in the hospital before he died. Not knowing of his death until a week later has been very concerning & a very sad shock. We met in the early '80's & lived together for about 5 years in Portland. We've been friends since & I'm glad he got to visit Tucson a few times. I'm sorry dear friend. I'll miss you greatly. You started your Architecture firm when we were together & I'm very proud...

Mark & Family.... I am devastated .... I met Steven while we were at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver in 1978... I remember the weekend he went to Portland to decide where to move and he never looked back. I fondly remember my many visits to Portland, following his career and his life in PDX. He was a kind soul and I always had a soft spot in my heart for him. I love you Steve.....

Dear Mark and Family I was very sad to learn today that Steve had passed. Steve has worked with me and my team at Badlands Portland previously the Embers Lounge for the past 5 years. Steve was always kind and creative and willing to help in anyway possible. When I wanted to make project changes he was more than willing and of course added in some of his own great ideas. I will miss working with him and am especially sad that after such a long journey together that he won´t get to see us...
