I have some great memories of Steve as he was the big brother of my best friend, Kathy, growing up in the neighborhood. From walking to school, to playing pool in the basement. He was a happy guy and a great father. He will be missed.
I am sure the memories and happy times will bring you great comfort at this very difficult time.

I worked with Steve at the Post Office in Richmond, and he was my boss in Budget for nearly a year. He was a good friend as well as a great person to work for. He had a great sense of humor and his laughter was infectious. He was very passionate about his family and spoke often of them at work. Steve, I will miss you buddy!

Steve will be truly missed. I met him in Albany and, through the Postal Service, met him again in Richmond. He was truly knowledgable in his work and a pleasure to know.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

We have lost a good friend and a truly gentle man. Steve always supported me at work and even on the golf course. He helped so many people. We shared many good memories over the years. We laughed with and at each other. He loved to laugh, loved his family, and his fellow man. He will be sorely missed.

To the Morgan's Family,

It is with a heavy, heavy heart I write this and send my condolences to the family of Stephen. May his entire family find peace at this most trying time. I have found peace in the following prayer and I would like to share it with you.

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom filled room, Why cry for a soul set free.
Miss me a little but not too long
And not with your head bowed low,
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me-but let me go. For this is a journey we all must take and each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan, A step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick of heart, go to the friends you know. And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds, Miss me-but let me go.

God Bless the entire Morgan Family

Growing up as friends with his son Michael, I ended up spending a lot of time with Stephen, and even worked with him for a time. He was always super-tolerant of us crazy kids and quick to laugh at, and with our shenanigans. It's lamentable to hear he's left this existence so early. My sincere condolences go out to the entire family.
