Steve was a dear and close friend of mine who I spoke with almost every day since I met him. I think of him evertime I drive down Alvernon or Colunbus and see 2nd Street. I loved the times when we sat inn his garage and told war stories and when he would come by my house with one of his beautiful antique cars. I shall never forget him

January 12, 2011

Jeremy and Stevie, we think of you often and your dad was very special to us and all his friends. He will always be missed. Love, Louise McLaughlin and John Quaid

I have not seen Steve in 20 years. Was surprised and saden to see his obituary in the newspaper.
Steve and I went to Rincon High School together. We ran around alot after school and on weekends. We also bowled together at Lucky Strike Bowl. He was a great friend and alot of fun to be around.
I just wanted to let his family know that they are in my prayers and what a good friend I had in him.

I am so sad about Steve. Over the years he had been a great friend. Steve was the type of friend who even if you haven't seen him in a long time you could pick right up where you left off. He was a very kind and generous spirit. I love you Steve and I will miss you.

Steve's and my friendship goes back decades as do our good times and memories. I will think of Steve everytime I see a 34' Sedan and always will. We did not see each other often over the past years, but whenever we did, it was like old times...
My prayers and sympathy goes out to all of his family and our friends, we know Steve is in a better place now...
