Steve and lisa moved back to Fond-du-Lac this summer, so i got to see him on a regular basis. Steve was a good guy, I will miss him.

My condolences to Steve's family. I knew Steve many years ago when we went to St. Louis School. We all grew up through the years with the nuns!
My father, Charles Van Vleet, who recently passed, was Steve's scout leader for many years. He loved working with him! I have been in town for my dad's funeral and saw the news of Steve passing. Again, sorry for your loss.

Lisa and family, so very sorry for your loss. Steve was a good guy. I worked with him at TTI and got to hang out with him a few times over the years. He died far too soon. Thoughts and Prayers to all.

I enjoyed having Steve as a fellow Harley rider. I also enjoyed our visits during Daytona bike week. He will be there with us during Bike Week, in March,just as he wished. We will have him in our thoughts and prayers.
