Jim Steve was a gallant and stalwart gentleman...although he was friends of my older brothers, I remember his presence, if yesterday. With that, his life had purpose and he made a difference and his family should be proud. I still see that smile and take over the room style....what a guy!

Jim was one of my oldest & favorite hunting partners. We hunted around STC, Montana, Tenn. Many good times. So sorry he is gone. I will miss him.
