I cannot believe it has been so long since Mr. Stevens passed. I will always remember him as a kind, friendly and cooperative person to work with. He was always there to do the job, even on short notice. I also had the pleasure of speaking to his lovely wife on the phone, whenever I called the office. They were both always sweet and helpful; and he was a gentleman of the highest caliber.

I am sorry for your loss. I remember the good times of my uncle and I spent a lot of time at my aunt and uncles house in East Brunswick when I was young.
