Dear Merrell clan, I am so sorry to learn of Steve's passing. He was my son's coach many years ago with Port Crane Civic. He was a wonderful coach with a great sense of humor and fair play. He will never be forgotten. Thank you for sharing your husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather and friend with so many of us. May he rest in peace.
