My sadness at your loss and all those who knew Steve is profound. A fine man, a good man, a man to be respected and loved for his generous spirit and enormous intellect.
May you all be comforted by his life's legacy.
My love to you all,

Dear Mary, Heidi, Adam and extended Browne Family,
I was introduced to you some thirty years ago, yet it seems as if it was last week. Awed by the reverences attributed to nature, the simplistic values entrusted and passed on through the children, I was changed once experiencing your household. There are so many memories I have about Steve and his environmental intellect. His capabilities to identify fauna, squint and scan the clouds to predict the weather without wasting daylight, intersperse stories that resonated through his deep baritone voice, captived everyone in his presence. He will be missed without question. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of what I am sure was was a once in a lifetime experience. Sending love and prayers...

Dearest Mary and Family,
The Farm on Pleasant Valley Road was a respite and haven since I was a wee bairn and you and Steve my second parents. You both were always there for me when I needed advice, a home or a good lecture. Steve was wonderful with Ramsey and taught him many things, the most important being respect. You are all in my thoughts and prayers and I send all my love.

My brother Dave, Alden Saddlemire, and myself played many a game of hockey on the frozen pond! I still bike by the house every summer thinking of the childhood and teen years with laughter. Thank you- for cherished memories in the woods and hills on Pleasant Valley Road!

Mary and family....
I received a letter in the mail today from a friend in Albany with the clipping of Steve's accident. I couldn't believe what I read. And I can only imagine the grief you are going through. I'm sure my Mother welcomed him into Heaven with open arms. Steve and you were real good neighbors to my parents and I'll never forget the trips you made to Hill & Dale Farm on a "whim"....
May God be close to you and see you through this difficult time.
My love to you all.

Who can forget his booming voice and gentle manner, as long as you weren't the subject of his gibes. His death marks us all who knew him.

Dear Mary and family ~
So saddened to hear of Steve's tragic, untimely passing. He will be sooooo missed!! He was most definitely one of my 'favorite' co-workers during our time at DEC .... always a ready grin, friendly spirit and fun personality. Our heartfelt sympathy to you and the entire family.
God Bless you all...
