I am so sorry for our loss. My name is Gene Shaw, I spent many summers working with Steve at Hall Cattle Co. Ranch south of Alliance. I have often wondered where he was living. This picture is Steve changing sickles on his mower. This was taken the summer of 1962. I will remember him fondly. Hope you enjoy the picture
