I met Steve when we were in 3rd grade Hebrew school. We were together, 3 times a week until 8th grade and then less often until the end of 10th grade. We were a rather small group and knew each other very well. By far, Steve had the best sense of humor in a group where everyone had a great sense of humor. I had one class with Steve at the University of Arizona. It was just before that class, one evening, when I told Steve that I had decided to study to be a rabbi. He decided that was not a good idea for me and spent a significant amount of time and effort trying to help me change my mind. He prevailed.
