I miss Steve. As colleagues and "brothers" at our time at UMDNJ, I developed tremendous respect for him as a physician and as a man. I hope Phyllis is adjusting as best as possible. The world is a worse place without people like Steve.

I just learned about Steve’s passing from the DMU spring update. My prayers are with Phyllis, Alexa and the entire family. Steve and I were Chairs at UMDNJ-SOM and became good friends. I spoke with him periodically over the years and was to get together when the pandemic hit. Steve was a great doctor, a rock solid human being and a man who overcame adversity with great strength. I am so saddened by this news.

Steven and I were colleagues together at Kennedy Memorial Hospital, half a lifetime ago, in the 1980's. While it's obvious that he was brilliant, I feel the need to add, especially at this sad occasion, that it was a joy to work with Steve. He was insightful, kind, ironic and funny - I couldn't ask for better company.

My wife Merle and I send our condolences to Phyllis, Alexa and his entire family.

Doctor Steven was the sweetest man, the caring doctor and the kindest human being.
This loss left me, among so many other people, heartbroken and without a closure. I wish I could thank him from the bottom of my heart for taking such good care of me, his loyal patient.
Rest in peace our dear Doctor and a Friend...

Came as a complete shock to us. We loved Steve dearly and will always miss his self deprecating sense of humor. He was a wonderful family man, caring husband and father and truly great friend.

Steve will be truly missed. He was a great friend and mentor during my residency in radiology. He inspired me to go into interventional radiology and was my running partner for several years. Nancy and I send our condolences to Phyllis and the rest of the family.
