A true gentleman with a heart of gold, I will miss him. I was blessed to spend part of my life with Steve.

I am very sad to hear of the passing of Steve. Steve and I dated in the early 2000's for a couple of years but still remained friends after we went our separate ways. We have kept in touch through social media over the last few years. I knew that he was ill and reached out back in December and he had told me he was not doing well. He will certainly be missed and always in my heart.
