Steve will be truly missed, I know he was a kind man, like I told Joe, we always thought of Steve and Joe as our uncle’s and mom and dad cared about them both tremendously, just like they were their own son’s. We had fun as kids and i will never forget that.
Love you, Uncle Steve

My heart is heavy knowing a good man who meant so much to me and all who knew him has ended his journey with us. But he will be forever in the hearts of those of us who loved him.
