    We first met Steve when his son, Steve Jr began dating our daughter, Tanya. Although we did not see Steve real often, when we did he was always very warm and friendly and always had a welcoming smile. He was so loved by his wife, his three children and three grandchildren and he will be missed by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you.

    I am Steve’s brother Tom . Steve is a very loving and caring individual . There is no other person like him. I knew him best . We were close a lot of our life . We got seperated alot of times and always found each other again . He lived in a number of states for alot of his time here. He found Helena To finally settle down. He always gave me a ride to the grocery store . He never failed to do so. He will always remain in my heart . I love him dearly .

    I am Stevens brother Don. I want to offer my condolences to his family and friends. I did not know Steven very well, as we were separated at a very young age. I would like to share a couple of photos I have of Steven at a very young age. Steven is pictured in these photo with his siblings and parents. Steven is being held by his father. So sorry for your loss!
