I am saddened by the news of Steve's passing. Not only did he and Carmella arrange the first date between my dad and mom, together they also showed me a very positive example for marriage and family life. Thank you Steve and Carmella! And to Carmella, Dan, Becki and family, I offer my condolences. Mike Hudkins

Carmella,Family...As a former Garlando employee, it is with my heartfelt sympathies that I write. During my time there and with Crossett (20 yrs), Steve and I became very good friends,he kept me in line and for that I appreciated his effort.LOL He was a great Mentor, when I first began working in the produce field. He knew much and was always willing to share his knowledge. He was a great guy and I will not soon forget him. It is always a shame we lose contact with many of our friends over the years, but those friends continue to stay in our hearts. My prayers go out to you and family.
