I offer my condolences to the family of Mr Steves. Back in the winter of 1972-73 I was a young teacher at Bay Path Vocational and started a hockey program the first year the school was open. We used to practice at theWorcester Ice Arena early in the morning before school and Mr Steveswas working there maintaining the ice surface. He would come out onto the ice and help us with practice and give us some great tips. He was the consummate gentleman, the kids and I respected him greatly. May he Rest In Peace, tho always ready to lace `em up.
