For the Loud family,

There are many things I will remember about Stevie. 1) Smartest person I ever met. If he didn't know the answer... he would find it. 2) He was fair, never judgemental. A rare quality. 3) He was calm in a sea of chaos. Lastly, he LOVED his family. I'll miss fixing the printer for him in the C.O.s office.

I'll miss him.

To the family of Steve Loud,

I played years of youth hockey with Steve and was a classmate in high school also. He was a super person. Though I did not see Steve much after high school, I would see him at the reunions and when he was working in his many capacities of public service in Brockton. It was always like last week whenever I would see Steve. A truly great and wonderful person. My heart is saddened for your family. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

To Steven's family,
Sorrow does not begin to express what I felt when I read about Steven's passing.
I knew him from East Jr. High through BHS.
I only saw him a handful of times after high school, but when we ran into each other, we would talk for a bit and catch up on life. I prefer to remember him with his big contagious smile. I am so sorry for your pain. May he rest in peace.
