When I heard about Steve's DX, that he only had a short time. I said no he doesn't. Steve is so full of piss and vinegar he is going to live another 10 years. For those of us that worked for years at Capital know that "The House" with Steve at the helm was dynamic with the freedom and tools to be a success. I'll never forget Steve's special zeal for Katz's Deli and of course closing deals while playing the additional required role of "Firefighter" that was often needed. I am glad to have known Steve.
O G-d, full of compassion, Who dwells on high, grant true rest upon the wings of the Shechinah (Divine Presence), in the exalted spheres of the holy and pure, who shine as the resplendence of the firmament, to the soul of
(mention his Hebrew name and that of his father)
who has gone to his [supernal] world, for charity has been donated in remembrance of his soul; may his place of rest be in Gan Eden. Therefore, may the All-Merciful One shelter him with the cover of His wings forever, and bind his soul in the bond of life. The Lord is his heritage; may he rest in his resting-place in peace; and let us say: Amen.

I was shocked to hear of Steve's passing, way too young. I knew Steve from being good friends with my brother John. He would come over my dad's to meet my brother to go out clubing, the laughs we would all have, he was a great guy and a lot of fun, many good memories. Rest in peace and rock those heavens!!

We have known Steve for years, in his bountiful, successful days, living life large and in his darker, painful days, struggling to live with a horrible diagnosis....he always aspired to positivity, a smile,
a joyful memory! Rest in peace Steve....Henry and Susan Criscuolo

Dear Anne and Ilene,
I was Steve's next door neighbor at atria larson place. very sorry for your loss. you were a devoted family and, undoubtedly, the reason why he survived and thrived. Steve made quite an impression here and
several people asked me to convey our sympathy to you.

Though we may not have seen each other for years and only spoke now and then, and something always seemed to come up when we made plans to get together but with that said after all these years (40+) you were my only true friend. I will never forget all the laughs, good times, and the trouble we sometimes manage to get into, but we both knew that we always had each others back and would be there for each other no matter what. I regret that our lives prevented us from seeing and talking as much as we would have liked I never stopped thinking about you. Though I know that these memories will be forever ingrained in my mind, it won't be the same knowing that we can't just pick up the phone and reminisce, I will never forget you and will surely miss you.
..........May God Bless
Rest in peace my dear friend
