Jay & Donna, Where do I begin. Steve will always have a special place in my heart. I have so many memories of him. He brought laughter and joy to my life and my girls. He was a very loving and caring man. He could always put a SMILE on your face even on a bad day when you thought smiling would be impossible.
My best memory - I came home from work on my birhtday from a very long day at work and he was at my house cooking me a "special birthday dinner" my favorite that he made "beef Stroganoff". We were sitting at the table eating and a song came on the radio and he just grabbed my hand and started dancing with me in the dining room, the girls were just all smiles. What a loving man he was he will be missed dearly. I will always have a special place in my heart for Steve. Keep the memories close and he will be alive within you. Karen, I will always remember our talks and I am so sorry about the loss of your brother for you and Mike. Your family is so close and this will help with the sadness. Jay & Donna you will always be in my heart as well what a wonderful family you have!!

My best wishes to the White family. I did not have the pleasure of meeting Steven, but as a fellow SWA employee I am saddened by his passing. After reading all of these great guest book entries, I can tell that Steven was a great friend to many. You are all in my thoughts

Please accept my deepest sympathies.I just found out about my dear friend. I met Steve about seven years ago. He was going to take me away. He never said where. I have been waiting for him and now he will have to wait a bit for me to catch up to him. I miss him and I will always remember his beautiful smile. I miss you Steve.

Jay,Donna,Mike,Karen,Pam,Kim,and Terry too!
I am so sorry for your loss. I can only imagine the sorrow you all feel from the loss of your son and brother. Karen and I were best friends all through grade school and high school and even went on our first (and last) blind date together (what a disaster that was). Karen and I were always together, if she wasn't at my house I was at your house and I felt like you were my second family and home and Steve was a huge part of my life growing up although most of the time he spent giving Karen and myself a hard time!! He was definately a nut and very funny. We tried to get mad at Steve quite often but with his sense of humor and charm, it was impossible to stay mad at him for long! He definately grew up to become a great and loved man and will be missed greatly by all. Although this is probably one of the hardest things your family will ever go through I know that because of your faith in God and your close family togetherness you will be able to get through this together with the love you all have for each other. You know my family has been through hard times and believing in God and our family being so close is what got us through those times. I will be praying for all of you and I love you all very much!!! Karen if you need a shoulder to cry on or just need someone to listen please get in touch with me and I'll be there in a heart beat. Or maybe you want me to pick you up in a Volkswagan and take you to CA, just let me know and I'm there! I don't have a Volkswagon but maybe I can find one just for you! ha! (if people read this they will think I'm nuts but you and I will understand it) Karen, you will always be my best friend in my heart, we've been through a lot together and got into enough trouble together through out those years. I want you to know I'm here for you and your entire family anytime, just give me a call or stop by my Moms, I'm there everyday working and I only live 5 minutes from her, all you need to do is call! You are all in my prayers and I love you all!

My deepest regrets to Steve's family and friends. I proudly knew Steve from Unit IV to Apollo and especially at NAU. Steve had that certain perspective regarding life and I will never forget the good times we experienced nor the laughter we shared. Avery's KKC is now officially out of my wallet and gone forever. I miss you, my friend, but memories of you are not forgotten.
Bruce Brown
July 13, 2007
I wanted to personally thank all the Apollo Alumni who attended the services. I also wanted to thank the Fire Departments and Southwest Ambulance for participating like they did. I was very impressed and think Steve would be proud of your presence. It was great seeing old friends from Apollo High and the fire service who I have known for 30 years or more.
Lastly, to Mr. and Mrs. White, Mike, Karen, Pam and Kim, Terry too; God Bless you and your families. There are certainly special people one encounters in their lifetime. Steve and all of you have touched my life in a way no others have, including some (actually most) of my own relatives. Though I still feel sad for Steve's passing, I appreciate my time with him and your family. I hope to stay in contact with you all and in doing so, please allow me to list my contact information:
Home: 3227 W. 11th Avenue Place, Broomfield, Colorado. (720) 887-1450 my home phone. My cell (303) 981-1243. The next time I visit my folks in Kachina Village, I will plan to call and come by Munds Park, so be forewarned!
Respectfully yours,

This message is written with a very heavy heart. I was just notified today of the untimely passing of Steve. First and foremost, I send my deepest regrets and condolences to the entire extended White family. I have many fond memories of the time spent with Steve and the entire family. I will always remember Steves constant humor, love for the Dallas Cowboys, but most of all the unconditional love for his family.

Dear Donna, Jay and Family. I was just taken aback by the sad news of
Steven's passing. I don't remember much of Steven I pretty much ran with the older siblings. I am sue you will remember me. We all grew up in Cavalier dale. I am Dianne (Daisy) Allen and we lived on Flynn Ln. Donna was my Sunday school teacher and a mentor. You all knew my ex-inlaw's Bing and Maurine Miller and my Mom Naomi Allen. I am so sorry for your loss and pray God will give you strength to endure. God is our strength and refuge, He will never leave us. Steven is in a Holy and beautiful city whose ruler is God.

I have so many wonderful memories of Steve growing up as a kid. Living only 3 houses down from each other we were more than cousins, he was a BIG brother and friend. When I was a freshman at Apollo HS he was a BIG Senior, he took the time to make sure I was doing okay. I will never forget growing up as a kid how we played army, hide-n-seek,all our fun times at grandma and grandpa's house and many long nights sitting in the front yard talking and telling scary stories. Do you remember the time we went up North for vacation with your family and grandma & grandpa? We had so much fun. Do you remember the band we made up? How we used bone parts for our instruments. The song we made up "The Prehistoric One" those were the days. Thank you for being a brother and a friend to Terry. He is going to be lost without you. Thank you for being the person you were, I know that God has a special mission for you and that is why he took you from us. I will miss you my friend, until we meet again. I Love You!!!! Your Cuz, Tammy
p.s. Give mama, daddy, grandma, grandpa, uncle Joe and Phil my love. I will see you all again some day.

Steve,
You were the face & leader of Apollo High when we met. Your smile, laughter and imagination will be with me forever. I can remember the stupid things we did like swatting the Biltmore, the mustache truck rides and crashing the golf cart into the lake at our annual golf outing. Thanks for letting me into your life and being a part of mine. Say hi to Bill. Good bye, my Pub brother, we will meet again.

To the White Family-
Please accept our deepest sympathies for your loss. We only new Steve for a short time, but he touched our hearts. We enjoyed his laughter and quit wit. He was a compassionate, intelligent, kind hearted man always smiling and willing to help others. I will never forget the time we went out and it was karaoke night, he sang and what a beautiful voice he had. He will be greatly missed.

Paramedic Steve White, was a blessing to have at SW Ambulance. My sympathy goes out to the White Family. Steve was a great partner to work with..He never left any body behind and always took you under his wing. I will cherish the memories with Steve. And if there is anything i can do to help please let me know.

Steve and I met soon after my family moved to Glendale from Newhall, California in 1971, 7th Grade at Unit IV. We stayed close friends through high school, my attempts at college and after. We both had a dream to be cops one day. I took that path, but Steve changed direction to fire and emergency medical service. I took an early retirement from law enforcement in 1999 and moved to the Denver area and sadly, did not keep in touch with Steve, who about that time, moved back to the valley from Flagstaff. I have many fond memories of growing up with his family. His father married me and my wife. His mother always put up with me. I came from the visitation tonight with sad, but fond memories of Steve and his family. Though our lives took different paths, I think we were still close. I feel fortunate to have known him and look forward to seeing his smile again one day.

First let me express my sincere condolences to the White family. Steve's passing will leave an emptiness in many hearts that will be hard to fill. I met Steve at Apollo and was fortunate to share some of the best years of my life with him. He was more than a friend, as cherished as a brother. My memories would fill a book. I will miss him always.

I too was truly saddened to hear of Steve's untimely and horrible passing. I knew Steve when he was a sub Chairman on the Phoenix Jaycees Rodeo of Rodeos. I thought he was a very humerous guy! I just saw him in March at the Phoenix Jaycees Old Timers Night. He was in good spirits and being his same old funny self! Steve is in a better place though without any pain. I will keep his family and friends in my prayers! God Bless Steve!

I was very shocked and deeply saddened to hear about Steve. My heartfelt condolences go out to the White family. I knew Steve well from our days at Apollo and I cannot help but smile at every memory I have of him. I remember him as very kind, sincere and hilarious. Steve was one of a kind and left his mark on many lives. How fortunate we are.

Steve is my brother's friend but we considered him a dear friend of our family. My brother, Bruce Brown, and Steve went to school together at Unit IV and Apollo. In fact, Bruce is on a plane from Denver right now to attend the services. Our whole family sends our sincere sympathy to all of Steve's family. He was a very special person and we have so many fond memories. We will never forget when Steve helped build our family summer cabin in Kachina Village in Flagstaff. Our parents still live in that house. We will never forget the kindness and laughter that Steve brought to our family.

My sincere condolences to the White family.I met Steve at Apollo HS and he defiantly made a big impact on all who met him. He will always be remembered for his big smile, you always new he was thinking of something to make you laugh, and he always did. I believe he touched the heart of every person that he had met. His loss will leave big holes in many hearts. Steve, watch over us until we meet again.

Condolences to your family from my family. I met Steve several years ago, while I was a volunteer firefighter with Mountainaire Fire Department. He often said that because of this influence he chose the calling of firefighting. I am sorry for your loss.

My deepest sympathy to Steve's Family. He was taken from us too soon, but a hundred years would have still been too soon. Steve was one of the first kids I met when I started school at Unit IV. He was kind and kind of crazy at the same time, it was wonderful! His humor and jest for life was infectious. I don't remember a time when he didn't have that suspicious grin on his face. We all have great "Steve" stories that we will treasure until we see him again. I have no doubt that he is teasing a few angels right now.

July 11, 2007
My thoughts and prayers are with Steve's family and friends. My memories of Steve are from long ago- Unit IV Elementary and Apollo High, but his big smile and love of life will never be forgotten. I was looking forward to seeing the old gang at our Apollo reunion this September, but I know he will be there in spirit. God Bless.

My deepest prayers & sympathies to the White family. I first met Steve at Unit IV in the 6th grade. Throughout the years Steve never lost his great sense of humor or his smile. Steve was a friend to everyone and we all have many wonderful memories. May these memories bring his family and friends comfort.

I'm so sorry that we have lost Steve. I remember the stories of he and my brother Rick's ornary things they would do in high school like playing SWAT and running away from authorities when they were spotted.

Norma and I have often talked about Steve and the "Shangri-La Nursing Home Gang." Steve had such a burden for the residents, especially one 88 year old man whom Steve lead to the Lord. We saw Steve in Flagstaff a few years ago and shared some wonderful memories. He was an awesome, caring man. We rejoice in knowing him and we will be praying for his precious family in the coming days.
God Bless!

Steve is my younger brother. I am so pleased to have heard about this website. I guess I owe a bit of gratitude to Laura Lewis for maintaing this book. If you started this book Laura, thank you so much! This has lifted my spirits when it couldn't have been any lower. I enjoy reading about my brother and the friends that he made during his short life. He was a character for sure. My brother was a kind person that made a difference in this world. I was so proud of him when be elected to follow me in the fire service and paramedicine. We talked about the system all the time. I would love to share any thoughts and stories about Steve that you might have. Thank you so much for the taking the time to comfort our family.

I've known Steve since 5th grade at Unit IV and also in high school at Apollo High. He definitely was a funny guy. At the 20-year high school reunion, I remember talking into the wee hours about what was going on with his life with several classmates. He was such a sincere, kind person. I was looking forward to seeing him at the upcoming reunion. I will miss him. My heart goes out to his family.

To the White Family: Our sympathy and prayers to you all.
We've known Steve for many years - from his Flagstaff days. We'll remember the B-B-Q's, Super Bowl parties, Diamondback games and the many heart-to-heart talks.
Steve was in Flagstaff just a couple of months ago and took the time to stop by our house for a visit. We were glad to see him and happy that he took the time to stop by. Of course, at the time, you don’t give it a second thought. Now, looking back, that visit holds even more special memories as we remember some of our conversations. Steve - thank you for being a friend, taking the time to show your friendship and making us laugh as we remembered “the old days”.
And to your family, may the special memories you have - always keep Steve alive in your mind and in your heart.
Paul Simpson

To the White Family... I am so sorry for your loss. Steve was my first partner/supervisor at Doney Park FD. I worked with Steve throughout his career at DPFD and also at Guardian Ambulance. I also lived with Steve on John Wayne Blvd in Timberline. Steve was a good man, a good public safety officer- a good friend. Steve in 1995 you showed me the ropes, today I am a Captain/Paramedic- Thank You. God Bless you eternally, rest in peace brother.

My memories of Steve began in 4th Grade in Mrs. Taylor’s class at Unit IV Elementary School. All of my significant memories during my elementary and high school years include him. His laughter, his smile and his sense of humor could turn any event into a comedy routine. I remember him impulsively jumping out of the car in the middle of an intersection and directing traffic…and the cars followed his directions! I took for granted that his spontaneous humor and friendship would always be around. Our 30-year reunion is in September, and I know I will continue to watch the door looking for his familiar cowboy hat. Steve made a significant difference in my life and I am so thankful to say he was my friend. My world would not have been the same without him in it. I will cherish our memories and he will live in my heart forever. Steve…I love you and I will miss you! Happy trails to you…till we meet again.

Some people stay in our hearts forever….My greatest memory of Steve in high school was his great sense of humor and how quickly he could get us all to laugh! It doesn’t surprise me at all that he became a paramedic – caring for people in a time of crisis! I pray that his family be comforted knowing the impact he had on so many people’s lives through the years.

Steve, you were so dear to me. I loved you too! I so enjoyed sitting and talking in the wee hours of the mornings and laughing about all your practical jokes. You, Terry and I had a lot of great laughs, a lot of fun times in the pool and barbequing. You made the best taco's ever! I will miss you deeply and you will be forever in my heart.

How can you put into a few words how Steve has touched so, so many lives. I knew Steve in grade school and high school - and never was there a day when he didn't have a smile for someone - no matter who you were. To his family - you have lost a son, but God has gained an angel and He'd better watch out! 'cause Steve will have heaven in stitches! My prayers are with you.

There are no words that can express the depth of loss felt with Steve’s passing. He was one of a kind, the definition of unique and special. As I reminisce of our time at Apollo High School, with friends from then and now, it is more common than not for Steve to be front and center in the story. His humor helped to develop lifelong relationships and memories that impacted many for years to come. He will be missed dearly, but I will take solace in knowing that he is looking down on us with his mischievous grin, knowing that his time with us will never be forgotten. My thoughts are with his family during this difficult time.

My dear White Family, Growing up with Steve was such fun. He was always laughing and making a joke about something. He was also good to put his arms around me and make me feel better when life dealt a tough hand. Just looking at Steve's picture makes me smile and brings back so many memories of youth camp and lock-ins at FSBC Big G. We lost touch as we got older, but he was always a part of my life because he has always been in my heart. I knew he was around and kept up with him through you. Loosing Steve is a devastating blow. I will miss him. I feel blessed that he was a part of my life.

Although I did not get the chance to know Steve for a very long time like many others. I did have the opportunity to work with him on a few occasions. Steve was indeed a very humorous and humble man who loved to serve and help others and that was displayed on every call and with every patient he treated. Although the times were few I feel honored to have been able to share even if only for a short time the time and memories made with Steve. Steve indeed was a good man and will be missed by all. To the White Family my heart goes out to each and everyone of you and you will be in my prayers.

My deepest sympathy to the family. I "grew up" around Steve as he was one of my brother's good friends. I know he will be truly missed.

I'll never forget my friendship with Steve. It's been many years since high school and when Steve and I were room mates for a semester at NAU. I'm so sorry for Steve, and his family's loss. Steve's family are in my prayers through this difficult time.
