Maureen and Family: Hope that you and the children are coping with the loss of your loved one. I keep
all of you in my thoughts and prayers at this "sad" anniversary of Steve's passing. I miss having cases with
him......he was so great about being "fair" and so great about returning phone calls. I also miss his smile
and always being considerate of his colleagues. Thoughtful and caring......that was Steve!

To Steve's family,
Today I was reading the Summer issue of University of Dayton Magazine and I saw Steve's name. I am shocked and saddened to learn of Steve's passing. Steve was an outstanding criminal justice student at UD and one of the best persons I have ever had the privilege of knowing. The peace makers of this world lost a soldier.
My sympathies to your family.

Back when we didn't have cell phones or digital cameras, Steve snapped a photo of me and my son at the UD-father/son basketball camp. To this day, that photo sits on my nightstand. The memorial mass was beautiful. I know he will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers to Maureen and family. I got to know Steve in law school and remained friends. I worked with him on law school alumni matters and in particular tha Law School Scholarship golf outing. Always a positive person and a good friend. My wife Brigid met Steve during their undergraduate time at UD. We will both miss him dearly.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Yuhas family at this difficult time. Steve and I were in the same class at UDSL. I remember him, even way back then, to be a warm and caring person and a friend to all. This world is a little sadder to not have Steve in it. May God bless his family and friends.

Steve's passing is so sad. I got to know Steve through work. I used to see him regularly at the Industrial Commission and we had some cases together. Make that against each other. But that never stopped him from befriending me. When I was a new lawyer, Steve always reached out to me to ask how I was doing and offer any advice he could. Steve was such a nice guy, always asking about me and my family, and telling me about his. I loved talking with him about UD, and UD basketball. I will miss Steve Yuhas.

Dear Yuhas Family,
We were so saddened to learn of your loss. We had the pleasure of getting to know your family when Katy, Megan, and Melanie played club volleyball together. Steve was such an enthusiastic supporter of Katy and the team! We enjoyed our many conversations about our kids, movies, volleyball, and anything else that came up. He was a good man and he will be missed.
Please accept our sincere condolences------

I am so sorry of to hear of Steve's death. He was the exact help I needed in 1997, when I was going through a very difficult divorce. He represented me well and at the same time to find the strength to stand up for myself. He was a very caring individual.
May the souls of the faithfully departed through the mercy of God rest in peace.

Steve's life is a model of kindness, caring, hospitality, spirituality, and relationship building, all in the UD/Marianist charism he lived. He made a difference in all that he touched. He will give me, and others, guidance by the model of his life for all the days ahead. Thanks Steve!

We cannot imagine our lives without our dear friend Steve. He has always been there for everyone, such a giving kind man. We knew Steve both professionally and personally. His legal expertise got us through some really hard times. In happier times, we asked Steve to marry us in 2013 and, although he had never officiated at a wedding, he happily did what had to be done and he seemed to be as honored to do so as we were to have him. This past October he agreed to marry our closest friends, the Gibson's, also here at our home. Steve was a man of his word ("this is good stuff") and spent many hours helping and sharing his experience, strength and hope with us all. Just remembering his beautiful smile will help us all get through this. Our love to Mo, Daniel and Katy.

My deepest condolences in your times of sorrow.
Steve was such a great man. Always willing to lend a hand, or listen to someone that needed help. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. I had a deep admiration, respect and love for my cousin.
He will always be remembered for many things, the love of his family, his passion for sports, and a fierce competitor.

I cannot begin to share the sadness that the entire Graham family feels at the loss of Steve. His extraordinary kindness to all of my family and especially to me, since we first met in 1979, will never be equaled. Steve was my great friend, my UD roommate, my brother in spirit and a happy voice at the other end of the phone so many, many times. We will all miss you in so very many ways. The entire Graham family loves you forever.

Words can not express the sorrow that we (my own family, and my/his extended family in the workers' comp community) are feeling at the loss of Steve. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family. Steve was a great guy and was always willing to lend a kind or supportive word. At the Workers' Comp Committee meetings he would brighten everyone's day with his quick wit and compassion. The world is a little less beautiful without him. I knew Steve for many years and sought his counsel (legal and otherwise) often. He was more than a colleague to me, but a true friend and I am going to miss my friend very much. May the Good Lord take you into His arms, Steve. God Bless.

I worked with Steve as a freelance court reporter in Dayton from '92 to 2001 when I started as an official reporter in Clark County. Needless to say, I was so happy when his smiling face came to this courthouse to try some domestic cases! A very courteous, very professional, adept trial lawyer, but more importantly, a smiling, interesting, intelligent man to talk with. My heartfelt condolences to the Yuhas family during this unspeakably difficult time.

Steve was one year ahead of me in Law School and during two of the most difficult years of my life Steve instilled a sense of joy and peace for me. I would just look at Steve and be reminded that I should be at peace with my situation and be thankful. I knew Steve as one of the most giving, kind people ever and for that memory I will cherish him.

Although I only knew Steve Yuhas for 3 years, he was and will remain one of the greatest role models I have ever had. He opened my eyes to so much and taught me a great deal about what is important in life. He is the epitome of a selfless and giving person. I will cherish the memories I had with this one of a kind man and will think of him when I need an example of how to be a goofy, faith-filled, or loving individual. I will share your life with my family one day and will await the day I get to see you again.

Dear Maureen and family,
I loved Steve like a brother since we first met on the UD Alumni board in 1985. Our friendship continued throughout the next 30 years with UD, ethics committee and other community efforts.

To all who knew (and therefore adored) Steve,
Our family is also praying for Maureen and Daniel and Katy, Steve's parents and his many family members & friends who are saddened by his passing. God has gained what we have lost until we see Steve again. Until then, I pray we are all as grace-filled as Steve and his daughter Katy whose Facebook tribute I re-read hourly, trying to process what we have lost. Your family & friends will try in any way required to help you bear this heavy burden.
"Love one another". Steve knew how to show that in small and large ways. Godspeed Steve. We will help your kids they way you helped all of ours.
Sincerely, Andrew, Susan & Albert Asebrook

I attended UDSL with Steve and can say that he is one of the people that I remember the most. After leaving Dayton, I would see him annually at some UD function. I can see his face and hear his voice as if I had seen him yesterday - he left that indelible mark with me and so many others. He was truly and genuinely one of the nicest people that I had the pleasure of knowing, deep in his core. He will be missed for all the right reasons. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and many friends; may you find comfort in your wonderful memories with him. Its always tougher losing one of the good guys.

There is no way to fully describe the kindness, generosity, effervescence, and wit that graced Steve Yuhas. His dedication to the University of Dayton, the University of Dayton School of Law, and to the Dayton Flyers is matched only by his lifelong commitment of supporting the Catholic Church, Catholic Education, and serving his fellow man. He lived his Faith, supported his community, and loved his family with everything he had. He touched more lives in his time on this Earth than most do in 100 years, and whoever knew him was blessed by the experience. Heaven has gained an exceptional Angel, while we have lost a treasured man.
