Steve and I first met in the late 70’s or early 80’s we had similar likes, had both served in the Navy with similar jobs and a lot of mutual friends on the railroad. Steve was a good man. I’ll miss my friend.

Linda and family, I am deeply saddened to hear about Steve passing in February. I am a member of the coffee team at church and always enjoyed the conversations I had with him on Sunday mornings. I attended the beautiful online service yesterday. I had no idea he was such a gifted artist. My deepest sympathies to you and your family. You are in my prayers.

My dear brother, There is not a day that goes by that I don't want to pick up the phone and talk to you. I have loved you all of our life and will continue that love for the rest of my days. Such a purely good Christian man. RIP my dear brother. Will see you one day,
