Not sure what to say?

To Steve's Family - How lucky you all were, and all are, to have him and each other. At his service the speaker said he is still with you in love and I believe that to be true. And I echo everyone's sentiments from Fireman's Fund - thank you, Steve, for your graciousness and all your help.

I am stunned to have gotten the news that we have lost Steve.
I remember Steve as such a loving husband and father and a wizzard at work. We spent some wonder times together including the both of you standing up for Neil and I at our wedding. Musette, I send my love to you, Shila, Tessa and all your family.

Musette, and family, I know that "Lovely Steven" was the light of your life. Your partnership and love story is one of the most beautiful I've ever witnessed. You are in our thoughts.

Thinking of you during this difficult time. I went to school with the girls and worked with Musette. I'm so sorry for your loss.

I remember Steve as a handsome, soft-spoken, smart, generous, light-hearted, warm man. he loved his family. He shared his knowledge willingly. He will be missed. I'm so sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry to hear that this wonderful, funny, gracious person is no longer in this life. He was extremely witty, constantly talking about his family including his wonderful wife, Musette. I first knew him through his friends who referred to him as "normal case Gillum" - - you know who I'm talking about, don't you Wil! Although Gillum only tested for "normal case", he was anything but! He will be missed and was much admired.

To Steve's family, I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Steve for over 10 years or should I say, his technical problem solving and expertise helped me out of plenty of jams! He was a wonderful person and met every challenge with a smile. I remember his old car, how happy he was to use the car seats his daughters gave him. I remember him sitting down in front of the green screen and working his magic. So sorry.

Dear Musette, Shyla and Tessa - we send our love and condolences to you and the rest of the family. Steve was indeed a very special guy who brightened our lives.

Ten years later, I only have the fondest memories of Steve. Smart, skilled, helpful, never letting ego get in the way. To die this young is truly tragic. My sincerest condolences to the family.
