Sending all of our love and blessings to Alice and all of the family. Our last memory of Steve was talking to him about his and Alice's planned trip to Machu Pichu, Peru. Although he never made it, we know his spirit now flies beyond even the most beautiful places on Earth.
Honoring and remembering this great family man, Dave, Marilyn and Camila Nulsen
