Dearest Hillary, Lynne, Danny and all of the family: I am so saddened to learn of the passing of your father. Memories of my childhood and times I have spent with your family always include your wonderful father. He was certainly a great man and I know he was well loved by all. I am so sorry I am not able to attend the service, as I feel in my heart a desire to be there. Love to everyone. Karen (Weintraub) Sidweber, Bob and Danielle.

Dear Lynne: I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your Dad. My husband's Mom passed away this year (cancer) and you never really know the true essence of "that feeling" until we have the unfortunate experience to live through it first hand. Let the tears flow and in time they will trickle. Lynne, your Dad's loss will always be with you, but may the compassion, faith and understanding that he taught you, help bring healing to your heart. With Love & Support, Janet Giglio Rule

Dear Sandy & Family,
I am deeply saddened to hear of your loss. I have been working with Steve since the early 1990's on advertising. I always enjoyed our conversations. More time was spent on talking about life than business.
My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Dearest Sandy--
God bless Steven today and always--he finally earned his much deserved wings! And I know that right now he's kicking some serious butt up in heaven getting things organized just the way he likes it! You know that I'm always here for you no matter what. And no worries because there's more fudge on the way to get you thru this difficult time. Hang in there--I love you very much!

In Memory Of Steve
By Alvin Benatovich
On bended knee
In heartfelt song
Prayers are offered
For all that’s wrong
The worship of good
In the Lord’s place
Brings tears of joy
To the believers face
And as prayers rise
To reach his ear
The week is begun
With mind so clear
My deepest sympathy for you in your time of loss.

Dear Sandy, Lynne, Danny, Hillary & Family,
No words can convey the sadness we feel at Steve's passing. He was always such a dynamic force; full of passion, energy and excitement. We have a lifetime of wonderful memories together, which we will treasure forever. We feel blessed to have had the opportunity to spend so much time with Steve through the years. It was always great talking to Steve, whether it was about sports, business, family, or simply life in general. We will miss him terribly, but we will lovingly remember him always. May you all find comfort knowing that Steve is now at peace. You, his family were his world and he was blessed to share his final hours surrounded by your love. We hope your memories and the love of your family and friends help you get through this difficult time. Our love and prayers are with all of you.
Love,
Ellen & Steven
