Haven't seen Steve in almost 50 years, but I was with him when he bought the I believe it was a Mercury Comet or Cyclone in Sycamore. Rest in peace, May God bring peace to the rest of the family.

The best memory I have of Steve is from 50 years ago when I went into labor for our daughter April Diane "Sissy". Gene said we didn´t have enough gas to get home if it was false labor, so he says "We´ll go get Steve". Of course Steve took us and stayed with Gene, back then fathers were not allowed in delivery rooms, until she was born. I think Gene just wanted company, that´s the way he was always had someone with him, usually Steve or Rick or my dad. I take comfort in knowing Gene and Steve are running around together on yhosemHarleys that have to be in heaven. RIP and love you Steve.
