Cary, I just heard of the passing of Steve. I knew him through Rob De Cesare, as he worked for him for many years. He always had nothing but nice things to say about him. I know he will be greatly missed. May God give you comfort at this time,as only He can.

Cary, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. It was Steve who opened the door for me to the world of architecture back in the Kassuba days. That opportunity led to 20 more memorable years of working with him. Steve was not only a talented architect, but a true gentleman and kind person. He will truly be missed and June and I send our deepest sympathy to the family.

Last time I saw Steve, we were all practicing golf at Palm Beach Gardens Municipal course. I remember him well from the good 'ole days at Kassuba when it was Ginocchio and Spina - long time ago. Steve was smiling then as he was the last time I saw him. Always smiling, always friendly and as kind as can be. I was saddened to read in his obituary that he suffered from Parkinsons. I'm sure it was hard for all of you. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
