Remembering Steve from Junior High and then from High School. And keeping in touch every 5 years when our classmates met for a reunion. My favorite memory is the most recent... Last year when he "attended" our virtual 55th reunion. Steve had a wonderful sense of humor, he loved his family, and was very proud of his children and grandchildren. He asked me a few years ago to take a walk through the Plain Township Cemetary next to the church where my husband and I serve. He wanted me to find his father's grave and take pictures. So I did. Steve, we will miss you! God Bless your family and all your loved ones! Jon and Sharon Stoots
