I've only known Steve for about 3 years but they were treasured ones. He would always have his Meatloaf blasting in his office; so loud that our banks would ask if there was a party going on. He LOVED taking pictures of the kids and family and would bring them in all the time to share. As was mentioned at church, nobody can forget the chuckle that he ALWAYS did when he would hang up the phone. Until we meet again, Steve! You have a beer up there for us all! I will try to make your chili, can't promise that I will succeed though! :)

I had the pleasure of working with Steve for many years. He was more than a co-worker, he was a true friend. You could talk to Steve about anything knowing that he really cared. He was one of the most intelligent, level headed people I knew. I will truly miss his daily presence and down to earth personality and will never forget him. My heart goes out to Maureen, Luke, Tessa and Maddy for their loss of a wonderful husband and father. I know Steve is watching over all of us.

Maureen and family, our prayers are with you at this difficult time. We will always remember Steve, his wonderful laugh and the look in his eyes when he spoke of you and the children. Steve truely loved his family and life. We will miss seeing those large albums full of the triplets pictures, he was so proud to be a dad. We will miss hearing his music come from his office, we will miss his smile. I know he will be watching over you. Take care and know you can always count on ACI if you need anything. Love, Betty and John Mesaros
