Estevan Tafoya

E,

I am devastated, and the news reached me so late. I trust you are kickin it up there, with that infectious smile of yours. Though the years and miles and very different adventures made us lose touch over the years, you have left such a special Estevan-shaped place in my heart. Your soul is so full of kindness and resilient joy that you were always so ready to share. You exemplified friendship to me and so, so many others with your loyalty and listening and presence when it mattered. I send you hugs and I am sorry, truly sorry, that I didn't keep in touch and took it for granted that we'd catch up one day. I love you, my friend. And I treasure the memories we made together. You will forever be my favorite dance partner (my husband won't mind me saying this ... kid can't keep a beat).

I am very sad to hear of this young man's passing. He seemed to be very intelligent and motivated and loving. Amen to him, as I can see him rising into the arms of Christ Jesus. May Our Lord hold you all close during this time.

My heart breaks for all of you. A parent should never have to outlive a child. My daughter is the same age. I used to joke with Steve about them dating when they grew up. Please know you ALL are in my heart and my prayers are big.

Love all of you,

Vicki Goss (Goen)

Estevan, I will always remember your smile and the sweet and gentle soul you gifted us with. I didn't see you often but I watched you with pride as you grew up and became such a wonderful man and your passing leaves an immense hole within our family. My heart goes out to all who are touched by his loss and lots of love and prayers to Beth, Steve, Tom, Addy, and Emmy.

Steve and Judy, May memories sustain you. We send prayer and energy and love. Debbie and Dan Golden

Steve,

I was so sorry to hear about the loss of Estevan. I remember well the many times you and I talked about him when we worked together at Uptown Station. So sorry for your loss brother. Give your dad my regards and condolences as well.

My brother-in-law Steve loved his son so much. He was proud of his computer skills and shared his love of animals. I know he will miss Estevan always. My heart is with you, Steve. Hugs, hugs, hugs. - Paula
