My condolences to Steve's family. I was so shocked to see the sign at the Fraternal Hall today. I met Steve and his gregarious personality in 5th or 6th grade at Lee Richmond. He was our class cutie. I would periodically run into Steve in town and he would give me a hug and tell me about his family. He will be missed at our Class of '88 reunions. I feel honored to have known him.

My condolences to Krisi and the rest of the family. Steve was a great and funny man, I'm a 49er fan so we use to talk about football and how much he loves his raiders. He always knew how to make ppl laugh and loved his God and his family very much. Every time they came to Vegas we always had a great time,whether it was just hanging out by the pool or any family members house. I met Steve through Kristi. I loved his bacon wrapped asparagus. Although I didn't know him very well the Times we did spend together as family were always fun. May you rest in peace Steve and God bless your family you will be missed.

Stevie was my step brother, and although our parents divorced and we lost contact many years ago, I never stopped thinking about him and wondering how he turned out in adulthood. We reconnected on fb and I am so glad. He will be missed greatly and will always remain in my heart. I pray for peace for Kristi, his children and his mom. I love you all.

Steve, I miss your smile, jokes, picking on you for liking all the wrong sports teams and your BBQ parties. Truly one of a kind (thank goodness because the world couldn't handle two of you). You were always wondering how your friends were doing and if they needed something. You took so much pride in your kids and loved talking about them. I'll always remember how you would "reel me in" for a hug with the invisible fishing pole when I was grouchy. RIP, until we meet again.

So sorry to hear of your passing. I know we've kinda lost touch over the years, but I'll always remember the good times, especially having you at Straw Hat Pizza (in 1977) to celebrate my 7th birthday! An odd thing to remember so fondly, all these years later, I know. But it was the first thing that came to my mind when I heard the news. You were a heck of a guy, and I'm glad that we got to share some good times together. Wish there could have been more, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. I know you're in a better place now. You will be missed, my friend.
