Steve was a big part of the Tabernacle baptist church in coralville ia. He made a big impact on many lives and helped out quite a bit. I will always remember Steve coming up to me every Sunday asking if I have my troops in order (I'm a Sunday school teacher troops-kids). We even joked around a lot that I was his sister and he my brother. You will be missed and always remembered brother. Fly high ❤
