Steve, you will aways be in my thoughts. I would look forward to you coming in for keying or whatever hardware problems you would have. We would alway have fun times solving the worlds problems in a half hour no matter what. And when we would be serious for a second regarding our familys it was alway with love.
One a kind and special to the world.
Thinking about you.....

28 years babe, so many good times. I will be lost without you and will miss you every day until we're together again.
Save me a seat. Until then, I will carry you with me in my heart. I love you more than you will ever know. Marlene.

Steve and I worked together for many years. He loved his job and his job loved him. Fiercely loyal, hardworking, one of a kind. He could figure anything out and was at the tenant's door in a split second from when they called. He was always helping others, always. So many memories over the years. He is the kindest person I have ever met; a bright light in the lives he touched. A loyal friend. The world has lost a special man. Godspeed Stevie.
My deepest sympathy goes out to all of the Harmon family for your loss.
You will truly be missed by many!

Stevie, the world is a much smaller place because you are no longer in it. Your laugh, your smile, your devotion to anyone who knew you. You were always there for anyone, at any time for any reason. The world lost a great man.
I lost a great friend and will forever be greatful to have known him.

To the Harmon family, I am sorry to hear of your loss. I haven't been around for a while but remember Steve from school and playing ball at Weymouth Park. From the other comments he turned into a right nice fellow.Have to say, cancer sucks.

It’s your laugh that I will miss most! You were a ray of sunshine even on the darkest days, always just a phone call away… no problem to big for you to fix. Often a problem would arise and my first thought would be … call Stevie!! Always eager to help a friend but never expecting anything in return. A stubborn man when I met you I met my match and yes typically you always won and when you did the conversation ended with that laugh. A laugh that will always make me smile. You were one of a kind, my confidant and my best friend and I will be forever grateful for your friendship.
Until we meet again Stevie…. You will be forever in our hearts…

I had the pleasure of working with Steve while I was at Standard Insurance on Donald B. Dean Dr. I cannot remember a time when I saw Steve and he did not have a smile on his face and funny story to tell. I am so very sorry for your loss. The Harmon family will be in my prayers.

Steve's sense of humor and dedication to whatever it was that he was doing always rose above the crowd. Heaven is a new beginning for you Steve. We will connect again someday. Be at peace and know how much you are missed and loved.

I worked with Steve from time to time as a fire alarm technician. He was always ready to do whatever was necessary, had a great work ethic, and a great sense of humor. He was a pleasure to work with. I'm sorry for your loss.

Marlene and Mikey and family,
We were very sad to here of Steve's illness and passing. We will always remember getting to know Steve at Weymouth Park, when we called him "the Burger King" at the Little League games. So many of those boys were treated like his own. I remember picking Joey up at your house so many times, seeing Goldie and wondering if that dog would live forever. I remember the red sox games you would take Joey and Mikey to. Steve was a great guy to be around and he will be dearly missed.

Dad,
I can't believe you are gone. It just doesn't seem real. I look at my phone and see your name and think for a minute, "oh I should call Dad"??
I want to thank you for being a wonderful Dad. I have so many happy memories of us together, camping, learning how to ride my bike, frisbees flying at me, Blitzen & Goldie(and how much you loved both of them :),tucking Amber and I into bed every night (even Monday Night Football night!),laughing at family gatherings because you and Uncle Tom would tell the best stories together and make fun of everyone, you seeing my babies for the 1st time, but not holding them.."I don't hold babies, not until they are potty trained" and many more memories in between.
You were a very special man Dad, and I hope that you know that. You were loved by so many, you touched so many people's lives... Your friends are going to miss you just as much as your family. You treasured your friendships like no other. You never let anyone down, EVER. I think that along with me they are feeling lost, like what do we do now??
Watch over my girls' Dad, and remember it's never goodbye, it's until we meet again! You will always be in my heart Dad.
I love you, Shawna

Never will I understand why the good ones have to leave so soon.
Stephen, I will always remember your laugh.You would come in to my place of work to have a key cut for what ever property you may be working at. Never would you be in a bad mood. We would alway fine something to say that was funny before you left. I will miss your good spirit and you.
God bless

Steve was one of the nicest, kindest and most competent people that has ever worked for The Boulos Company over the past 35 years! Night or day, blizzard or hurricane, Steve was always there for our tenants with a smile. If being there for someone else is the measure of a person then Steve was truly a giant. We all loved this guy and no one at our company will ever forget him! Steve, say hello to my dad in heaven.

I knew Steve through Boulos. Even though his appearance meant something was broken, I was always confident that he could fix whatever was wrong. He was knowledgeable, but more importantly, he was honest and funny and always had a warm smile beneath that grizzled exterior. Everyone at CDS enjoyed his company. He will be missed and never forgotten.

It’s a sad day in Buxton with the loss of Hyme. He was a wonderful man and friend. His big white smile and funny laugh will always be with us. Now he can ride the golden roads of heaven and be free of pain. One day we will all be riding with him. We were honored to have such a friend. May you all be a peace knowing that his pain is over and he is in a better place. God Bless

Always a friend, always a laugh. Never would walk by a friend with out stopping to say hello. There are no words that can ease the pain of the family at this time, but know if there is anything we can do. Please let us know.
