I am so very sorry to learn of Steve's passing. I worked with Steve at the Bureau of Reclamation. We also worked with Steve when he was at Metro for the Cooperative Student Program. He and you will be in my thoughts and prayers.

So sorry to hear about Steve; Steve out lived my dad by 5 months.

My favorite moment with Steve was at a dinner on Colorado Blvd and about Mississippi.

We sat for about 2 hours, when Steve joked that the waiter must have quit. Not only did we find out the waiter did quit, no one bothered to tell us!

Love
