Steve always touched peoples hearts in a way no one else I know could through his kindness and humor. Steve always made me laugh with his silly comments and just some times just by telling me what he was having for supper. Rest in peace my friend you will be missed.

There are few in this world that have the love of life that Steve did. His carefree attitude and humor were so contagious. He will alway be remembered as a friend that brought many smiles to my face. Rest in Peace, Steve.
