I met Steve at SBC. We shared a lot of laughs. Some of my fondest memories of Steve were at "The Store". Steve's satiric tone would get us all started. John P, Terrance H, and I would tell jokes until our eyes watered and our sides hurt. I'll miss you Steve.

I came to know Steve through his sister, Wendy, when she and I were in college together. I remember Steve as a warm, caring, compassionate young man who smiled with such sincerity that his eyes twinkled and smiled too. He had a way of making people feel welcomed and special. I remember that he had a great sense of humor and a pleasant spirit. What wonderful attributes he has left us to aspire to….



Words can neither express the love and fondness I feel for the Fountain family nor the sadness I feel about this loss….I am simply heartbroken….



In the absence of a fitting expression of my sympathy, I can only continue to offer my love and prayers for those Steve left behind. Please know that Kofi and I are here for you in any way that you need or want us to be….

Steve was one of my childhood best friends. There was hardly a day from 1983 to 1989 that we did not hang out together. During these past few days, I have come to realize how much Steve has shaped my life and my personality. I will take him with me wherever I go.



I miss you much, buddy.
