I am truly saddened with the passing of Steve. He and I worked together in the International Contracts group at General Dynamics under Steve Goodman. Steve was as decent and pleasant person as I have ever known and his passing leaves the world just a little less than it was when he was here. You have my sincerest sympathy for your loss.
Sincerely,
Tom Summers

Steve was a long life best friend to me and my family. He always put others before himself. Even in the deepest of his illness, you would call him to check on him and he would always turn the conversation to asking about you or family. He was truly, a caring, generous person, that had a kind heart. He fought his illness to the end with bravery and kindness. He will be missed. It will be wierd not getting his greeting cards.

Steve was one of the nicest people we have ever known. Even though he was going through so much these last several years, he was always interested and concerned for others. He was selfless. Not only are we going to miss him, this earth will miss him too.
