Stevie always had a special place in my heart. He loved his family and always made an effort to keep in touch with all of us. I will miss him dearly as I know you, Hanna, and Angie already do. I can just see him and Gary are hanging out together in heaven right now. My thoughts are with you and the Girls. If there's anything I can do even if its just to get out of the house let me know.
