TOMMY, MARCIA, JEN, KAYLEE AND SAMANTHA:I AM SO SORRY I DID NOT SPEND AS MUCH TIME WITH STEVEN IN HIS ADULT YEARS. AS KIDS, I REMEMBER TEACHING HIM HOW TO CLIMB OUT OF HIS CRIB AT GRANDMA'S HOUSE IN FLORIDA. EVEN AS A BABY, I KNEW STEVEN WOULD GROW INTO SOMETHING SPECIAL, AND, WHO KNEW HOW BLESSED WE WERE TO HAVE HIM IN OUR LIVES FOR EVEN A SPLIT SECOND. WE ALL HAVE ONE MORE ANGEL WATCHING OVER US. LOVE AND PRAYERS.

Mr. and Mrs. McNichol,

I was shocked to hear of Steve's passing... I have so many fond memories of him from our SJV days. I know you are a strong family and wish you great comfort in this difficult time. Though I am sorry that I did not get to know him as the man, husband, and father he became; I will always remember him as a spirited and wonderful person he always was.

I had the pleasure of having Steve work for me at Rich Products for 3 years. Steve left an impression on everyone he interacted with. He had a great sense of humor and wit about him. We reminisced at work today about our favorite Steve "moments". He never took himself seriously. Steve was the "underdog" who everyone rooted for. Although slight in physical stature, he had a huge heart! I always admired how important his family was to him. Jen and his children meant the world to him. His relationship with his father was a model for all father's and son's to follow. After meeting his mother last night I now know why Steve was the person he was. Steve's passing reminds us all to spend time with those who are important to you in your life. He was truly one of the "good guys". I'll miss Steve terribly. Though he has left us, his spirit will remain with us forever.
