We haven't seen one another in many years, but I recognized his picture right away by his smile. We're cousins, and I remember family get together at Grandma and Grandpa Nunnery's when we were little kids. Good times, good food, good memories. Rest In Peace, Steve. Judy DeLancy, Ft Myers, Fl

Praying Uncle Steve is at peace and out of pain as he watches over us up in Heaven.
Heather Nunnery Smith I am so sorry for your loss.

I will always remember Steves humor, his witty comments and positive attitude. He was such a nice genuine guy that loved his family.

I remember how happy and healthy he was after his kidney surgery when he came to Bloomington to visit. He ate like a horse and with every bite a smile on his face. That is the image I will always remember him as.

I pray that one day a cure is found for polycystic kidney disease.
