So sorry to hear that you've left us Steve...I wish I had looked for you harder. We were best friends growing up, me in Rabbittown and you in Weaver. I've been missing my ole' buddy for years and now there is only one place I'll ever "find" you my brother. My thoughts are most definitely with the family left behind.
