What's doin, Steve!
Although I never got a final goodbye or to let you know how much your friendship meant my mom and me. I will never forget all the weekends we spent hanging out. Watching movies, cooking you breakfast and dinner or just talking about life. I enjoyed hearing about your family and all of your life's adventures. I appreciate you always offering to order takeout. I dont think I will ever be able to eat Pasta Brioni without you, it definitely will not be the same.
Thank you for your kindness. Thank you for your hospitality. Thank you for your friendship. You will forever have a special place in my heart and my families heart.
Rest well Steve.
This is where the cowboy rides away

I'll always remember Steve's '55 Chevy pulling into the student lot at WCHS and his distinctive voice. He was a true gentleman.
