I will miss everything about this man: my friend, husband, father of our children. There was no harder working person. He took his work seriously and could not do enough for his clients. He was known to walk dogs and shovel sidewalks when he was at a home fixing an alarm problem. He was eager to help family and friends with repairs, moving, whatever was needed. He was a talented guitar player and gave lessons but did not like playing other than in private. He is a lifetime NRA instructor and taught gun safety. Steve spent many hours with our boys cutting wood, renovating our pool house, taking karate lessons and travelling. He accepted his illness and fought a good fight. He will be missed for his dry humor, sarcastic remarks and smile. Life will never be the same without him.
