Marie, Greg and Aaron, We met Steve, Marie and Aaron as we shared Laura and Greg's wedding day. Steve's stature and kind nature is what struck me first. Marie, we enjoyed spending time with you and Steve just two months ago at Laura and Greg's. Thank you for taking time to visit and leaving us with fond memories of you and Steve. Our love and continued prayers for strength. Steve and Dot

I'm so sorry for your loss. I met and gained a great friendship with Steve during his time at OEC. He was a mentor and so kind to many of us who knew him. He was known for his calm demeanor and his sense of humor. I learned of his passing today, the world will not be the same without him. Please find peace in the near future and know he was such a great man.

I am so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. He was a great guy, and a wonderful instructor. I liked him the first time we met at OEC, and nobody I ever met could eat a steak like him!

Thinking of you on this Father's Day. Your dad was always so nice and just plain excited to hear all of the things going on in the lives of those he loved. Great smile and a great man. He's with you always now, and just as excited to see where life takes all of us. Hugs
