Stephen L. Christopoulos

I will always remember Steve for his kindness, wealth of knowledge, motivating skills and his laugh.

My deepest condolences to his family during this very sad time.

I will always remember Steve for his kindness, listening skills, wealth of knowledge and his laugh. He was a motivator. I had a great deal of respect for him and he will be missed.

Sending my deepest condolences to Lenni, Sean and Colin during this very sad time.

His knowledge, experience, and willingness to share will be missed in the forums.

I interacted with Steve via the forums. He was always willing to lend a hand or offer advice if needed. We also exchanged stories about our time in Germany and serving in the 2nd AD. Prayers for the family as they navigate the next couple of weeks. The memories of the stories he shared with y´all and the memories y´all made together will keep him with you. God Bless

Steve - Although I never realized the privilege of shaking your hand, I'm one of that silent majority who has benefited from your willingness and eagerness to share your knowledge and skills. The obvious pleasure you took in helping all who asked leaves behind an unfillable void in our 1911 Addicts community, but thankfully, your writings will assure that your memory will never fade. Rest easy friend, and look forward to shaking that hand one day. - Tom D

Prayers for the family and Thanks for the help to Steve. RIP

His treatise on the 1911 extractor, which is the heart and soul of the pistol, is unsurpassed. The time he took to assist others, the vast majority of whom he would never know, speaks volumes about the sort of man he was. If this world had more people like our "cyber friend", "Steve in Allentown", who cared enough to share his time helping others, the world would be a better place. As a fellow Southwest Texas Bobcat, I can say the sky over campus is shining a little less brightly now, but Texas will forever be a better place for having known Steve. Vaya con Dios, amigo!

Steve managed to touch a lot of lives and for that, he will be missed.

I always appreciated his posts on the 1911 forums. His made the complex simple and was always willing to help.

Rest in peace and prayers for his family.

Steve in Allentown was his user name....... But he was more than just a 1911 addict. He was an encyclopedia of knowledge, a veteran, a father and just a great man....... he was always quick to help wanting nothing in return...... thank you Steve for everything you´ve done.... Rest peacefully...... your family is in my thoughts and prayers

Although we have never met, your life has touched mine through the online forums. Thank you for the help you provided, so willingly for anyone with a problem. You will be missed.

Captain, you are now relieved from your post. A job well done fellow veteran. America thanks you for your service to our country in the defense of freedom. The final volley has sounded and taps is about to begin, ending a successful career as a nation´s defender. Farewell fellow veteran.

Steve, pal, so sorry we never got to meet, I would have enjoyed so much to have you visit my shop.

To Steve's family, I will say that those of us who benefited from his knowledge and generosity will miss him and remember him!

Stephen,
Thank You for Your service to our country.

God Bless You!
God be with your family!

Sincerely,
A Grateful American

Dear Lenni and family. I´m so sadden by Steve´s passing. I worked with Steve at LVHN and fondly remember his sense of humor, love for his family, and professionalism. May many happy memories soften your grief.
