You are all in my thoughts and prayers and have been since Steve’s passing. As you celebrate his life today may the memories and family bring you comfort. My favorite memory of Uncle Steve was on our last family trip to Wisconsin. We stayed one extra day after everyone else had left. Uncle Steve pulled out the game Bohnanza and played with my boys all afternoon. They had so much fun and loved the new game. When we returned to Washington we had to order the game and they stills talk about that afternoon with Uncle Steve whenever the bean game comes out.

Dear Pat! I just learned about Steve and I am sill in shock. He was absolutely wonderful, kind, patient, easy to be with, never criticized but taught. I hope there is a publication of the funeral, as I would want to attend. I am a practicing Catholic and miss the church during this time. There are no words. I am sending a hug...

With deepest sympathies and such great memories of the short time I had to be with all of you and get acquainted with Steve. Those pleasant memories especially cooking a dinner for all of you is one of my best times ever. Family love always abounds with all of you!

Our deepest sympathies to you and your family. I worked with Steve at Donohue & Associates in 1979. Always a very helpful person and easy to work with. We became friends and maybe you recall, you painted a dresser for us because Steve said you are talented in crafts. We still use it now and it brings back those memories of you and Steve. Remember the goods times as you reflect on the past with Steve. God bless you and your family as you work thru your loss. Kathy and Dave Thomas

Our deepest sympathy for your loss of Steve to you and your family.
I always enjoyed the most from grade school age on playing hearts sheepshead with my oldest brother, it seems that he would always try a solo if he thought he had a 1 in 3 chance of winning and I think he probably won 2 of 3 of them
