Stephen knew more about music then anybody I know. He was a shipmate on the John Rogers with me. I will always have good memories of him.

Stephen was a shipmate and a good friend, spent some years on the USS John Rodger and hung out and partied together. He was an engaging and funny guy and shared many laughs. There are certain songs that remind me of Steve when played on the radio as he liked heavy metal music and also had a talent for drawing comics, I truly morn the loss of my friend and to covey peace and comfort to his family know he is in a better place. Ill always remember you and all the good times we had, rest in peace brother....from the desert dweller in AZ
