I will always remember Steve coming to Lincoln Elementary School in that cute little car that his family owned with those special cookies his mother would make. You always hoped that you had him in your class because then there would always be the most fabulous treats for his birthday served to every student in the class! Wow! It sounds like he lived a good life & that is nice to know. Rest in Peace, Steve. : ) Susie Grove Plunkitt

To Steve's family, sorry for your loss. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us that God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, and that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. May that bring you comfort at this difficult time.
