Words can't take away sorrow that is life altering. Years pass, our lives change. We all have fond memories of family get-togethers for Easter and Thanksgiving, hamburgers on Friday, Chubby Checkers, Clemson Football, skiing in Vail & motorcycle stories, and the most wonderful Host for a night on the town in the Windy City. Steve loved to live (Large!) We'll always miss him! Love from The Elston Family.

We of the motorcycling community will miss Steve tremendously. He gave so much of his time helping all of us to have a good time on two wheels. We hope the roads are great in his new place. Goodbye Buddy. Jerry Ciesla / GWRRA IL-Z2
