He fought a strong fight through all of the many challenges and tried to make the best of his limitations by trying new things....crocheting hats and other things...but especially showing his sense of humor with that crocheted cowboy hat!!!! And those adorable birdhouses he made were sooo creative and wonderful!!! He left his loved ones with those little gifts!!! Barb....you took good care of him and even while you were sick fighting for your life!!! We´re so sorry everything turned out the way it did......we loved Steve and love you all dearly!!!
