Steve was a devoted husband, father, and Pappy and was extremely involved with his family. Anyone who knows Steve, knows that after his family, breakfast was his second passion. He loved diners, talking and hanging out and honestly, did not meet too many people nor diners that he didn't like. He was an avid motorcyclist and has been since he bought his first bike in his teens. He enjoyed motorcycle trips with his friends and his father-in-law, Larry. He loved landscaping, plants and taking care of his yard and flower beds.
Steve was known for his engaging and humorous personality. Never a shy guy, he could and did talk to anyone and everyone. He loved nothing more than a good teasing, especially his children and grandchildren. Steve was a lifelong lover of music and could name just about any song and artist within the first few notes of a song. He played many sports throughout his life; baseball, football, basketball, soccer, tennis, racketball, golf and was famous for knowing obscure rules of various sports.
