I didn't know, Steve. Only through loving Memories his mother Joan "my precious neighbor" has shared with me. Steve had to been one "Amazing" Son, Brother, Husband, Daddy, and Friend :) My thoughts and prayers are with his beautiful Family, as they lay him to rest, today! God Bless You all and Comfort You. RIP: Steve Wilson

I didn't meet Steve until a few months ago, yet I felt close to him. I admired his strength and sense of humor. I looked forward to every visit with him. I will miss him dearly.

Even though our friendship was new we took an instant liking to Steve. He was outgoing and eager to talk, joke and smile. We'll miss you!
