Hi Beth + family,
I don't know if you remember me from CCHS '80. I didn't get a chance to leave a message, when I read about your brothers passing. You & your family are in our prayers.

Rhonda,
My prayers and thoughts are with you and your girls during this most difficult time. I only learned of Steve's passing upon meeting up with one of our co-workers at the dental office.

Noel, Alice and Beth,
It's been a long time, but I rememeber all the things that we did together in our youths. Mr. Bonacci is like the "uncle" I never had. I remember Beth and Stephen like it was yesterday. Although the years and circumstances have kept us apart, my heart and sympathy are with you all.

I am sure you do not remember me, I worked with your Uncle Pat. I just wanted you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Rhonda,
You probably wouldn't remember me but I worked at Jordan Marsh several years ago while you were there. You always had such a wonderful reputation as a manager and I remember when you got married. As a fellow CCHS and SU grad ('88 and '92), I was so sorry to hear of Stephen's passing. I, too, live in Saratoga Springs now, and I know your community will rally around you and your girls. Take advantage of that, whenever you can.
My deepest sympathies and warmest thoughts are with you, your daughters and Stephen's whole family.
Sincerely,
Maria (Spagnola) Geizer

Mr. and Mrs. Bonacci, Beth, and family, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Stephen. Although I have not seen any of you in quite a while, you are very much still in my childhood memories, with Steve at the forefront. I remember Princess's ear incident with Noel and the lawn mower, Beth jumping from our swing and breaking her leg, Alice's nursing expertise that came in handy for numerous consults, and mostly Steve. Most notable, I remember him running from his house screaming because he had a hornet in his pajamas, and our countless hours catching tadpoles in the frog pond, putting them in our fishtank, and watching them sprout legs. I remember how sad it was to see you move. I cannot express how saddended I am to hear about Steve, but know that his memories will always live on. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

For Rhonda, Kealia, Taylor and all of Steve's family - Words cannot express how sad I am that Steve is gone. All of us from Syracuse can picture him in our minds - those beautiful sparkling eyes and a smile that lit up a room. That is how he will be remembered - during a happy time, a friend to all.
