Even though I haven't seen my cousin Steve in several decades I have fond memories of him. Steve you used to call Harriett & I by each others names just to bug us. I remember the one summers years ago when you & Jerry went fishing in the summer (can't remember the year) and he hooked you in the arm. Also we had your senior picture in our front room & you looked just like Ricky Nelson. Harriett & I would tell people you were him & our cousin-mom told us to stop doing that (lol). You are dearly loved & will be greatly missed. Love your cousin, Helen

Steve was my neighbor for over 10 years and we Just loved him. He was always looking out for my mom, my sister, and I and we felt like he was a part of our family. I remember calling him one night when I was home alone And I thought someone was outside. He walked the perimeter of our house to make sure no one was out there. He was one of a kind and we will miss him.
