Cousin Stephan are families did not live close but even so, in our younger years our families seemed to get together especially at Davy lake. I always loved being around you, Patty and Joe. As we got older and my family being spread out across the country we did not see each other for long periods of time but you were thought of often. When your whole family came down for my daughter´s wedding I was over joyed. Thank you for being such a wonderful cousin and loving son, brother, and uncle. Your memory will live on. My prayers are with you always. Patty and Joe and family I´m here for you. Love Eileen

Steve and I kept in touch on and off for almost 50yrs. He was a good son and brother, and loved his family above all else. He would email me and let me know how the family was doing. He loved and cared for his Mom, Ruth, deeply. He was always so proud of his brother, Joe, and had a special place in his heart for his sister, Trish. Monica and Nicole always made him proud, and his heart was all aglow everytime he spoke of Oliver. My husband and I often spoke of Steve and the Army days here at Fort Hood, Tx. His memory lives on in all our lives. May God bless those loved ones who remain and comfort them in their time of sorrow.
