Karyn, JR & Justin,
We our so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. He was a fighter and had a great life. He left a legacy in all of you that will go on for ever. Just know that he is looking down on you and always will with a huge smile on his face. I know he has the air in his face as he is now riding the best bike he has ever ridden and is on a journey that will last for infinity.
All our love and prayers,
Liz, Chuck, Laura, Angela and Michael

Steve, I am sorry to hear that you have gone home but you did an amazing job here and now its time for you to ride free. Thank you for your friendship, love, and many times of laughter. I will miss you dearly. Thanks for all those wonderful memories together and thanks for bringing JR and Justin into my life as a kid. My life would have been much different if it wasn't for the 4 of you. May you rest in peace now.
To my 3 other favorite people, I am sorry for your loss; if you need anything at all or just want to talk I am always here for you. Love you all so, so much.
