Steven K. Heer

Dear Ellen,
What a terrible loss to the world. I mean how could anybody not love a guy who carried his own set of chopsticks in his suit's breast pocket? And while being a political conservative, could joke that conservative intellectual was an oxymoron? Having him as a coworker made every day an adventure. I feel his absence deeply and sympathize with you in this time of pain.

Dear Ellen I was so surprised to read the paper a week ago and see that Steve had passed away. My Mom had talked to Laura and she said that Steve was ill, but we didn't realize how bad. I just wanted you to know that I am praying for you and your family and think of you often. This isn't how it's suppose to be. Love Gina (your old childhood friend).

633 Maryland Ave, 1977. My foosball partner, my casino guide, dinners at Sichuan restaurant and the debates, so many debates. One of my true life long friends-only Republican friend at that. We will never forget you. Rest in peace buddy; you are in a better place.

Ellen, Alex, Cait, Steph and Tony, I am so sorry for your loss. You are a wonderful family that I have enjoyed being a part of over the years. My thoughts and prayers are with you! I love you all very much.

I am sorry for your loss. I hope you can be comforted knowing that Steven is no longer suffering, no longer in pain. May Our Heavenly Father give you the strength to cope during these difficult days.

I'm so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. He was in martial arts many years ago in St Paul and was a frequent visitor to our store. He was always one of our favorites- always smiling and always a gentleman.
