Steven was a member of the Auburn Sportsman Club, and he was an avid hunter and enjoyed fishing.

Steven would always be there for family and friends to lend a helping hand with anything that needed to be done, he continuously went above and beyond for everyone.
The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the Hospice of Western MA and the second-floor nursing staff at the Webster Manor, especially to his nurse Maryann for the unconditional love and compassion that was shown to Steven and his family.
