Onkel Stefan, I was always impressed with the effort you made to attend important family get togethers. No matter what the weather you two would be there. The visits were short but your impression lasted a long time, and now that you have left us these memories will be further ingrained. Thank you for your warm smile and presence.

Blessings from Robert, Alisa, and ?

Sincere condolences to the Legler family. Steve was a tremendous member of the Hinchinbrooke community. It was always a pleasure talking horses.

I wish to express my deepest sympathy to the Legler family. I first met Steve in 1964. In the many years of business dealing with Steve, I found him to be a real gentleman. His presence will be greatly missed.

A fond memory of mine was our family trip to the farm. My children truly enjoyed exploring it with Onkle Stefan and listening to his stories that we all know he loved to tell. We will miss you!
