Karen,
It's been said that we're not supposed to out-live our children. I can't imagine what you're going through now but may you find comfort in your memories of your son. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear the Dame family,
I just want you to know that you will never be alone. You have so many people who are hear to listen and help you out in any way they can. I will continue to pray that Steve will give you the strength to get from day to day. He was really a remarkable boy, and you should be proud to have brought someone so great into this world. Steve and I grew so close, although we never knew eachother face to face; we talked about everything and we were always laughing. I miss him so much; and I really enjoy talking to Rollie and Matt because they help bring a little bit of Steve back. They're little pieces of him. Keep these boys close to your heart; and keep your heads up, Stephen is up there watching over all of us, keeping us safe. If you ever need anything, feel free to contact me.

Steve,
I just found out today that you lost your oldest son, Stephen. I still remember how excited you and Karen were to become parents. A lot of time has passed and we lost touch but I cannot put into words how sad and shocked I am. I wish I could have come to give my condolences in person. I didn't see Stephen grow up but I am sure he was the kindest and most respectful boy because he had great parents. My thoughts and prayers are with you,Karen and Christopher.

I never met Stephen but I too go to Suffolk and when i heard this i was in disbelief. I'm sure if i had met him I bet we would have been friends. All my condolences go out to the Dame family on their great loss

Dear Karen, Steve & Christopher, It saddened me to learn of Steven's passing. We remember fondly the cookout at your home when Elvis fell into the pool and Steven helped him to safety. I remember how nice both of your sons were that day. We are so sorry for your loss and wish you comfort knowing you will see him again one day. Love Arleen, Bill & Elvis

I had the very good fortune of teaching Stephen in my English class this fall at Suffolk University. Stephen offered me great comfort the day before my surgery, which was the last time I spoke with him. He struck me as an exceedingly polite, gracious, and kind young man. As a student, he was highly motivated, disciplined, and fiercely intelligent. We spoke about hockey frequently, and he told me that he was looking forward to be skating again after his own surgery. His fellow students expressed their great sadness and dismay over such a monumental loss. He was a big reason why I enjoy teaching so much this term. I will miss him dearly, and wish his family and friends all comfort and love, now and forever. I am so very sorry.

To the Dame Family : Words cannot describe how deeply sorry I am for your loss. My prayers will be with all of you during this difficult time.
Steve, I am truly blessed to have known such an amazing person as yourself. You will always be in my heart and forever missed. I know one day I will see you again. I was with Dan Williams the other day and we just cried & laughed about the times we shared when Nicole Pondelli would have those dance parties. You were such a smart and talented person, and always gave me strength & hope when I needed it the most. I will always cherish those memories. I just ask that you watch over all of us.
Love, Jennifer Cherubino & Robert Cherubino

To the Dame family,
I'm so sorry for your loss, Steve is an amazing kid & will always be in our hearts.
Steve,
To all of us down here it's easy to see how many people love you & care about you, I only wish that you could've seen it as well. Everyone's walking around in a daze lost without you, not knowing what to do with themselves becuase you've had such an impact on so many peoples lives. & Don't you think for a second that your not loved or missed. I was on your facebook the other day & just cried because of the nice things people were writing, you really are an amazing kid with amazing friends who love you & miss you more than anything.
We all love you so much Steve, watch over everyone, esp. your friends & family because they need it most.
Rest easy angel. You'll always be in my thoughts & prayers.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, ""I welcome you.""
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......""My day was not in vain.""
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

As a friend of two of Stephen's great-aunts, I have heard wonderful stories of this remarkable young man. The heartbreak will spur you on to positive actions, I am sure. The love you feel for Stephen cannot be a source of anything negative. The energy of sympathetic friends will be a comfort in some small way. Jackie Placona
