Dearest
Marcy & Shari, My husband, Scot Seaton (another childhood
neighbor), and I, are very sorry to hear of the passing away of your
dear brother.We send our greatest sympathy to you and to your
families. We are glad to hear that you could be together to support him
and one
another, as he battled for his life. We hope the happiness he gave you
throughout his life and the many precious memories he left behind, will
triumph in your hearts and comfort you. We send you our deepest
sympathy and we will keep your family in our prayers during this
terrible time of grieving and loss.
Steve was a great guy and we will all miss him. When I think of him, I
can quickly recall the charm of his unforgettable laugh and smile and
the way he made people feel welcome. Please know that our hearts, and
those of our families, do go out to you with a shared sadness. We pray
that God will now give him the greatest happiness he has ever
known and that he is now free from any pain or longings that come with
this life. In pure peacefulness and in deep joy, may he abide above us
up in heaven as a guardian angel- especially to his two beloved
sisters. I know he is looking out for you. I believe that he can feel
our love and is trying to reflect it back, telling us that he is okay.
We wish you peace and are praying for you, praying that some comfort
and healing may find you and help you through this. We are very sorry.
with love, Heather (Rupy) & Scot Seaton

To Steve's family
Steve was a student in my class at Ledyard High as were his sisters. Steve planted himself in my heart with his mischievous antics, his ever present smile, boundless energy, and his sense of humor. My heart aches with yours at his passing.
He will always be included in my thoughts and prayers.

You were a great friend and will be dearly missed. I have such good memories of you always making us laugh uncontrollably.

I wish to extend my sympathy to all your family and friends and hope that they keep with them all the good times and happy memories that you have given us. We love you Steve and you will be taking a part of all of us with you to a much better place.

We will always remember Steve as the ringbearer at our wedding 24 years ago this October. Steve was adorable with an infectious laugh...He never lost those qualities. He was a joy to be around.Steve caught both the garter and bouquet at our wedding. The pictures always bring a laugh to anyone who sees them.
Steve lived his life candidly and to the fullest. He was always doing something physical...biking, camping, hiking, fishing.... He always had a funny story and infectious laugh that brought pleasure to all in his presence.
Our only regret is not having seen him more. We are pleased our daughter Elizabeth and sons George and Charlie had an opportunity to get to know Steve a little and experience of his unique hilarity and lust for life.
He will be missed.
Condolences go out to Edy, Marcy and Shari
We love you Steven.
