I was really sad to hear the news this morning. My heart goes out to the Sahs family. You are in my thoughts and prayers , all of you, Steve too! I always loved talking to Steve, he always put a smile on my face when we would talk...and who has that much fun calling their insurance agent? Steve did and I did ! He was a wonderful friend who always had a smile in his voice... I know he's another guardian angel for us all....He is missed!

We are so sad to hear the news about Steve. I will miss seeing him and talking to him (alot!) when I pick up my daughter from SAFE. We both collected "Bumble" from "Rudodolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" and I got him one last Christmas! I will really miss him so very much. I know he was often not feeling well and I did a lot of praying for him. I am thinking of his family and praying that you are all ok and getting through this. He was a great guy and I really enjoyed him. Sure will be missed.

To Steves family,

My heart, thoughts & prayers go out to you all. We have great memories from when he worked at Wilson Safe program & especially the summer program in past years when he was there playing games & just talking as my twins (who Steve nicknamed Tweedle-dee & Tweedle-dum, which they loved hearing him call them) & we will greatly miss him & his sense of humor. He'd tell us of his upcoming car shows when they used to hold them at knights of columbus & downtown west allis & we'd go on a search hunt for him & we'd end up sitting & talking to him & one time he gave me a ride in his '74 VW Bug & told me the whole story behind it.

It saddened me as this past sunday Oct. 2nd we went up to the car show on our search hunt for him & found out about the heart breaking news as i cried on the way home realizing hes gone to heaven now.

He was a great friend & we will truely miss him sooo much. Again, my deepest heartfelt sympathies to the Sahs family.
P.S. he also used to tell me in talking what a proud uncle he was of his nephew & nieces as he showed me pictures...as he'd smile proudly you saw how much he loved them.

Stevie;
Today there is a huge hole in my heart where you should be. You were my little brother and my best friend. Your spirit and outlook on life made you a hero to all who met you. You made me want to be a better person just by being you. God must have needed you more than the rest of us(But not by much). Lois and I love and miss you. You are forever in our hearts

We all lost a good friend but now he can build his model cars again and enjoy life

Steve, Mark and I will miss you very much. You are such a sweet soul and no matter what you were always positive, joyful and kind. I am glad I got to see you in July at the Mustangs game with your Dad and the huge smile on your face.

Steve became a friend of mine several years ago through the aftercare program with West Allis School District. He helped my daughter with homework on a continuous basis, he always made time to encourage her to do well, and not give up when things get difficult. To a child these words of encouragement are priceless.Steve and I have remained friends even after my daughter left grade school. I have never met such an independent man with such determination to overcome every obstacle in his way.
Unfortunately, his life on earth has been taken way too soon.
But I know Steve will soar above and beyond us for enternity.
May God bless Steve's surviving family members. My thoughts are with you.
