He was the sweetest, kindest person I have ever met. In a short time he stole my sister's and mine heart and to this day I think, We will always miss having him around us.
Every day I pray that wherever he's, he will still be drinking his three cups of coffee every morning as he did it
Rest in HEAVEN MR. STEVE

Steve was our Taylor Made Rep for years. We were OSU fans together. Our sympathies to the family. Steve was a dear friend.

Many pleasant memories captured over a far too short period of time... Steve created and revived an old interest of mine regarding the game known as Golf! From that time in 1978 until just a few years ago the game filled my life...

On two separate occasions I met him at my club for demonstrations thereby purchasing two different sets of clubs!!!

Each event resulted in marked improvement of my game...

Steve, thanks for all the fun we once enjoyed!!!

Peace of the Lord be with You,

Ronnie "Pickett" Knight
