Oh, the times we shared! Living, working, playing together. At times it seemed we were all family, Steve being the hippie brother who would lend a hand where needed. His work with the disabled folks in the community served to enrich the lives of many, myself included. We all have remarkable and funny stories to share, Steve will be missed. See you on the other side, my brother.

Steve was a wonderful person. Hew was quiet in demeanor, friendly in outlook, with a great laugh, when he spoke people listened. Of his many stories the relating of the Christmas Card was a classic and will live on. RIP Steve.
