Very sad to hear of Steves passing. He was my late husbands cousin. Steve was always so kind to me. We always had so much fun when we were all together. We adopted two of our most precious fur babies through Steve. Rest easy, Steve & give Roger Dale a big old hug for me & tell him I miss him. ❤

Dear family, I am sorry to hear of Steve's passing. My deepest sympathy to all of you. Steve's father Verlin was my Dad's brother (Clovis Wm. Dicus) I have so many fond memories of us 5 Dicus kids playing with Steve. He was a character and was always playing jokes. The last time I saw Steve was March 2005 at my mother's funeral in Fortville. Our Mom is buried in Fortville along with my Dad at Gravel Lawn Cemetery. Hugs to you all at this sad time. Peace and Blessings to all of Steve's children. Steve's Mom, my Aunt Betty was the sweetest person, and my favorite Aunt. Love to all.
