Stephen was born and raised in Tucson, AZ. He graduated from Palo Verde High School where he was a competitive gymnast. He went to the University of Arizona where he met and married Crissy, the love of his life. After college Stephen had a successful career as a real estate investor and developer.

We say goodbye to our loving companion, father, papa, brother and uncle. Rest in Peace Steve/Dad/Papa and Uncle Steve. We will always miss you, and you will remain in our memories and hearts forever.
