Dear Steve's Family,
I had the good fortune of working with Steve during my time at HP. I remember Steve as a consummate gentleman and proud father and grandfather. I loved hearing stories of his children's accomplishments and grandchildren's sporting events. You were lucky to have such a wonderful husband, father and grandfather. He will be missed.

To Steve's Family, I had the pleasure of working with Steve for many years and greatly appreciated his kindness, loyalty and wealth of knowledge. I am happy to have known him and stayed in touch even after his departure from HP. He was a great man and I enjoyed his friendship. He always spoke very highly of his wife, children and grandchildren though I never got to meet them. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
