Kathy,

I am so saddened and sorry to hear of Steve's passing this past October. (I only just learned of it as I was skimming through the latest Bryant College newsletter). My sympathy and condolences to you and your children.

Kathy, I was so sad to learn the news that Steve has passed away. We got to know each other at the beginning of our careers, and kept in touch for a very long time after. I considered him a very good friend and colleague. My condolences, thoughts, and prayers are with you and your family.

Kathy, I was shocked and saddened to learn of Steve's passing today. My deepest sympathies to you and your family. Steve and I worked together at The Hartford many years ago. He was a bright, talented young man, and truly a pleasure to work with. I knew when he left The Hartford that he would achieve great success. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. May you find peace in your memories.

Kathy, I met you when Jamie was a baby and I worked for Steve in Employee Insurance at The Hartford. He was the greatest boss and friend. I am so deeply sorry to hear of this. You and your family are in my prayers.

I (unfortunately) heard about Steve's death today from another Zurich colleague, and was shocked, to say the least. I worked for Steve at Zurich for a few years, although it never felt like that; we were buddies and both arrived early to the office every day and talked about our families, our hopes, our children, and what we wanted out of work and life. Steve was exceptionally bright and it was intellectually refreshing to be around him. When he took the job in Florida, I missed him, but we were all moving on at that point anyway.

My sincerest sympathies to Kathy, who I met only once, and to his children who I never met but heard about every day. Your husband--father-- was a once-in-a-lifetime man who loved you all so much. It was a great honor for me to be his friend and the world was a livelier place with his presence. God bless you all.

Let me say, on behalf of the "Wilton Gang" that we are all sorry to hear about Steve passing. Some of our best teenage memories were spent on/or near Coley Road. We were both part of the Volkswagen bug group (Steves was green, I think). He was a friend to many.
With sympathy,

I wish our work and residences allowed me the opportunity to know Steve better. Yet every time I got a chance to see Kathy (best bud from high school) I always found myself engaged in meaningful conversation with Steve. I always really liked him and thought both he and Kathy were lucky to have each other; just a perfect fit. In extension, I imagine he was a great dad. I know the family will miss him greatly and their lives will be better for having loved him but forever changed with his absence. I am sad he was taken when he had much more living to do. My thoughts are with all the Peeters and Allman's and their close friends while adjusting to this great loss.

It is with such sadness that I heard of Steve's passing. My condolences go out to his family. I worked with Steve for many years at Zurich in Baltimore. I have some great memories of Steve during those years. He was a great co-worker and friend. We had a lot of fun collaborating at the annual meeting in Jacksonville. He will be missed by many. Kathy and their children will be in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless
