Wayne, Mike and Family,
I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Mrs. Steed. Your Mom was a vital link in the chain and just like a Mom to many of us raised in the neighborhood back in the day. Always a smile and always an encouraging word. We were allowed to have good, wholesome fun, and to this day I appreciate it.
I know this a difficult time, but I encourage each of you to cherish the moments and live vigorously in her legacy.
May God continue to Bless you all.
Byron

Marcia,
We extend to you and the rest of the family, our family's heartfelt sympathies over the passing of your Mother. A Mother's love is truly one of a kind and cannot be duplicated but We hope that the fond memories and love of family and friends will help in easing the pain.

Marcia,
It goes without saying that I am sadden about your Mother's passing. I cannot begin to know the sorrow that you and the rest of the family are felling, however I just wanted you to know that we all Love you and are here for all of you. Your Mother was special to me. Whenever I would call you when I first entered the Army she would answer the phone and say " Marcia, the Holiday Man is on the phone". She knew that every holiday from Ground Hog Day, to Christmas that I would be calling. Over the years I went from" Holiday Man" to Richard and then I knew I had been accepted as her Unofficial Son-in-law.A title I wear with love and pride. It is with tear filled eyes that I say, may you and the rest of the family be able to find some comfort in knowing that your Mother is at peaceful rest, in GOD's loving arms.
Richard aka " The Holiday Man".
