Judy and TK,
Steve was a wonderful husband, dad, and a great neighbor, we loved him dearly!
He loved his family so much, and that is something you''ll always know. Now he is holding hands with Chlaine, and knows Tk is going to take care of Judy, and when the time is right all will be together again!

If you ever had your car judged by Snake and walked away with first place or Best of Show, "You Knew You Deserved It", you were judged by the best. He knew that when he picked you Judy, to be his soul mate, that you were the best! I also know you are a survivor Judy, time is part of your healing process right now and my prayers are with you in coping with your great loss!

Judy, I really don't know what to say. Obviously the night before he died is the first time I met you, and it still blows me away that this has happened. I am thankful that I got to spend the last 2 days Steve was on this earth with him, and to spend his last evening with both of you. Steve taught me so much during my short time with him at Devon, and he will be greatly missed. I'm glad Steve was a part of my life. I wish you comfort and strength while dealing with this terrible loss.

I didn't get to see Steve for over 35 years but I always felt he was one of my very best friends. I pray for your family in this difficult time,Judy. I just learned about this a few minutes ago. I am in Zanesville and will be paying my last respects for truly a special person. My brother Eric is at work and he too will be very disturbed at this news. I Know that there is a God and hope when I visit him that my very good friend will welcome me as well. Even after all of these years I am still very overwhelmed by this news. God bless Steve and his family in this time of difficulty. I love you Man!

I just seen Steve again after being apart for a few years and it was a pleasure to see him, I was shocked to here of his passing. Worked with him many years ago when we were with Western together and I was so looking forward to working with him again. He will be missed and I will never forget what he taught me. He was a good guy and someone that you just wanted to be around.

Judy and TK,
I was very saddened to hear of Steve''s passing and of your tremendous loss. It is very hard to know what to say to you at this time.
You two were his whole world and although he is not here physically he will be with you both always, forever.
I pray for you both for comfort and strength for each other today and for the years to come.

Judy, I just recieved the devistating news about Steves passing and it likely will take hours to write a few sentences.You and Tahnya have lost someone that i cannot compare with anyone else i have ever known. And I have lost a Brother. Steve never once failed to mention the two of you in any conversation I had with him for the last , what, 35 years . Our phone calls always centered around our familys and then soon turned to the memorable times we had as friends of the sixties and seventies. I love you both and I love Steve, my very very best friend of my life, I already miss you. Eric
