He rose to the level of Exalted Ruler of the Perth Amboy Elks Lodge and represented the lodge at the national convention. After Stephen retired to Barnegat, NJ he took great pleasure visiting the boardwalk at Seaside Heights and the Barnegat Light House (Old Barney). A life long New York Yankees fan, he looked forward to his annual trip with Marian for spring training in Florida.
