Steven D. Kohler

I've just found out that Steve has passed. I had sent a message to him and didn't hear back and thought that to be strange, because Steve Kohler was always, always available to promptly answer any questions regarding the craft. I'm so sorry to learn this... R.I.P. From San Francisco

I met Steve through the scale modeling world, and always found him pleasant and jovial, even at the worst of times. Being semi-local, I would often go to his house to pick up the latest purchases and talk shop. We had more than a few deep chats after my wife passed, and I will miss those lunch time talks with Steve. I offer my condolences to Steves family and friends.

Steve was a great friend. I met him at a car show and we talked about our cars. I then met him at a model car show and we talked about our model cars. As the years went by we attended the same shows in Omaha. He was a special person and would go out of his way to help anybody. It's been a privilege knowing and laughing with him. Steve, I will miss you.

Been friends with Steve since jr high have many memories of partying,poker games,fishing, and. our recent pool games.Love ya buddy,TILL WE MEET AGAIN

I knew Steve through the model car hobby. I bought many models from him over years. I was very sad to hear that he has passed away. He was always a gentleman, totally professional and though I never met him personally, we enjoyed many model stories. We have lost a good friend.

It's hard to say how much Steve mint to me and my family. We send many of years on the road going to model shows all over mid west and car races and drag races. It's not going to be the same going to some of the stuff we did together . You are going to be in your hearts love you man. The Fickel Family.

Steve and I became acquainted way back in 1977 when he worked at the Surfco gas station on 127th &Q. I filled the vending machines there twice a week and would always hang around for a while to talk cars with him. Occasionally we would run into each other on the weekends at National Auto while cruising Dodge Street. Always liked his souped up yellow VW. As we grew older our lives took us in different directions and lost contact with each other. I didn't see him again until the early 90s when...

steve was a very good friend. spent many nights talking about cars and his favorite pass time of collecting and building model cars. he will be greatly missed.
