Sorry to hear of Steve's passing. From student council to football, even though we competed against each other he was a first class person. As happens, never saw him after graduation, but he was a special person and remember him fondly and with admiration.

I have fond memories of Steve from high school. He was always a snappy dresser: the color of his socks always matched the color of his Gant shirt. I regret that I did not get a chance to speak to him at our last reunion... I saw him across the room while I was in conversation with someone else, but he left soon after. My condolences to his family and friends. I know he is greatly missed.

Steve and I got in trouble together in kindergarden for throwing rocks at each other. We had to convince Aunt Jean we were just playing; it was all in fun. And for the rest of the time we were in school, that's what we did when we got together. We had fun...there was always something to laugh about. What a great guy! I'm sure he will be missed by many people.

I was saddened to here of Steve's passing. Like Johhny, I have memories of Steve going back to Aunt Jean's kindergarten. I have a photo from kindergarten and a birthday (8th?) party with Steve in it. I need to dig them out and post to our site. I also have fond memories of working on our first class reunion and Steve being on the committee. My prayers and sympathy are extended for all of Steve's family.
