I am just seeing this and shocked! My wife and I met Steve and Marydonna while we were both on our honeymoon back in 1980 and totally enjoyed their company in Acapulco. Nancy and I offer our sincere (belated) condolences.

So sorry to hear about Stevie. I didn't know him well other than seeing him throughout my life growing up here and there. I use to see him visiting and bringing DD to his mother every week while she was at Christopher's House while I brought the Pecorelli aunts to see his mother Mary. The last time I say Stevie was at one of the Pecorelli aunts funeral, he hasn't changed much over the years, still all smiles. I always remember him being friendly ,talkative and social being at his parents house on the hill as kids visiting his parents and the lumber store. RIP Stevie and say hello to all up there. :)

I knew Steve both from school and from work at jamesbury. He was a true gentleman whom I have never heard a harsh word against another. While I know that no one can live forever, Steve was one of those who you wished could. As Steve transitions from life on earth into life everlasting, know that he is with his God. Gone too soon.

MaryDonna and Family,
I was so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. I will always remember Steve as a wonderful human being whose kindness was infectious. Steve always went above and beyond to help his students. I enjoyed working with him but most of all being able to call him my "friend". Heaven certainly has another angel. He and my sister Diane will now look down upon us and guide us through our life here on earth. Rest in peace my friend!

MaryDonna, Lisa & Mike,
There are no words that can express the enormous hole, left behind by Steve's passing. His was a giving soul, many of Worcester's troubled teens were lucky to have had made his acquaintance. He knew how to get the best results from so-called hard to handle kids.
Our lives are certainly never going be the same, without our favorite Yankee fan to amuse us.
Rest in peace gentle soul, we will see you soon.
We'll miss you,
Ivy and Bill and family

MaryDonna, Lisa & Mike,
No words could ever describe the enormous loss left behind with Steve's passing. He had the most giving soul and was beyond a doubt one of the most loved human beings. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Shoes like his are not easily filled.
Love you guys,
we will certainly miss you Steve.
