I will remember Stephen as a trusted colleague friend and brother veteran since we first met in the ER at GW then as classmates when the physician assistant profession was still in its infancy and again at Laurel working in the ER. Steve was always cool and calm in the most challenging of situations. My sincere condolences to Linda and his family.It was a privilege to have known Stephen.

Steve was a mentor for me at the beginning of my physician assistant career. We bonded immediately over our shared history as Navy Corpsmen. I always appreciated his kindness, his wry sense of humor, and his wisdom. In my current work as a leader in our practice, I think of Steve's example frequently, and am sorry he is lost to us.

My condolences to the family. May the peace of God and the fond memories you cherish comfort and sustain you in your time of need.
