Steve's mother Eleanor was responsible for introducing us to Steve and Carol Ann when she discoved that we lived in Tucson. Steve's father Clell officiated at the marriage of Don's parents, Wendell and Thelma Hickman. He was also the half brother of Don's grandfather, Floyd Hickman. The times we had with Steve and Carol will be cherished forever. Steve's sense of humor brought us so much joy and laughter. We know he is in a wonderful place, now joined with his parents, and free from any and all pain. We love you Steve and will miss you so much.
