It´s hard for me to find the words of sympathy and condolences that I extend to you, Paula and your daughter, Melissa, and all who loves Steve and will miss him.
I have known Steve for many many years. He was starting out his career as an attorney when I was starting out my career in the bell system, working in the same building.
We´ve kept in touch often on over the years. And I had some legal work that he helped out with. Recently, I have been in contact with him. I had some. Estate issues I was dealing with. My beloved sister, who also was a friend of Steve´s, passed away on the same day as Steve.
Been in touch with Steve to discuss her condition and how to handle the estate. Should she not make it. When I last spoke with Steve, he was getting ready to take a trip to Florida. He sounded very happy and was looking forward to spending some time relaxing.
Debit card, I know how your family is hurting, because I´m feeling the same loss with the passing of my sister. It´s not an easy time. I will pray for the repose of his soul, and the healing of the family.
May our Heavenly Father Be with you now and comfort you. God bless you.
Warmly,
Marsha Vassar

Hello,
I did not know Atty Jesser well, but my brief interactions with him as my representative in an education-related case were very positive. I was impressed with his expertise and diligence. This is a great loss to many, many people. I can only wish his family and friends the best.
