To all of Steve's family, I am so sorry for your loss. Steve and I were fairly close friends, at least for a little while, when we were teenagers. Steve was one of the "Good guys" who lived in Highland Park in Richmond, VA. Probably everyone in the neighborhood got along with him. He was a lot of fun. We did not keep in touch as adults but by reading other comments it's easy to tell he was still well loved. My thoughts and prayers are with you all and with Susan and Billy too.

Remembering you and your family today. Steve cared about doing things right and took care of his workers and customers with personal pride and a smile or laugh. He has been missed since he retired and will be missed even more now.
