Steve my good friend. Its been a few years since i last saw you. We were great friends for many years but as we all know we grow and go our seperate ways. i have so many memories of us at my moms house all the crazy stuff we did for many years. The four horseman and the sign carrier the dutch. Wow thinking about the past is helping me relive so many memories. Some i can't say on here but you were a huge part of each and everyone of them.Denise,craig the beer dude,duchy,john-john,my brothers mike and john,and everyone else at yosko park. And how could i ever forget The Pelican,pete,connie,amy and the electric slide. I never knew you had children.But i know you are a great father. You were a big part of my life and i will never forget you. Tell my mom and dad i said hi.. Rest in peace my good friend K. And like we always said. I will see you on the dark side of the moon.

Dear Steve, Carol, Lisa & Valerie,
I was sorry to hear of the loss of your son and brother. Stevie was a good friend of mine for quite a few years. Please accept my condolences and forgive me for not making the services as I will be in Detroit on business. But, know I wish all of you the best in dealing with your loss. I had alot of good times with Stevie and am having a tough time believing he is gone. If any of us can take anything positive from this it can be enjoy life while you can because you don't know when it will come to an end.
Sincerely,
Stephen Polgar
