Jeff, sorry for your loss. I lived at 106 Homer St and remember as a little kid Steve pointing out every car that drove past...make, model and year. He always had a pipe and a transistor radio listening to the red sox. Also your house and the Rush family next door were my snow shoveling jobs every winter. My mom was a Maine.
Sending prayers your way.

Dear Jeff,
I was saddened to hear of Stephen's passing. It was always a joy to be in his presence. I can still picture him sitting at his desk writing and hearing his pronouncements which have no spelling. I was so fond of your mom and dad who treated and were proud of both their son's equally. What a wonderful brother you were. I remember our yearly visits to Twin Oaks for Stephen's annual meeting. I don't think Stephen knew there was any other restaurant. I remember his love of badges and how he wouldn't leave for work without one.
It was my pleasure to oversee his health and a greater pleasure to know his wonderful family. My condolences to you and Paula.
Sincerely, Linda Harrison
