I just can't believe that Steve is gone. We conversed on Facebook a lot. Just a few days ago he requested a few Candy Crush lives from me and I sent them. He never let on that he was ill. Stunned to come home late tonight and get this news. Rest in peace my friend. I am in total shock.

Didn't even know of his illness. He contacted me on Facebook a few months ago 2 chat- wish I would have known, but guess that is the way he wanted it. Fond, fun memories of Steve, the neighborhood and friends. Love to you Steve and family - Anita

After not hearing from Steve for many many years he e-mailed me about a month ago. It was so good to hear from him. I remember all the good times we had at PHS. I am so sad to hear of his passing.
