Chuck, Sarah and family...I am so sorry to hear about Stephen's passing. I wanted to let you know that I enjoyed your son very much when I had the opportunity to coach and work with him as a student athlete. Also, he gave himself to make high school and youth sports something special for others. He was always a positive and coachable young man, full of integrity and the love of others.
My deepest condolences to each of you!
Beckys and my prayers and blessing will be with your family.

Our condolences to Julie and Carlee on their loss. Steve was a terrific neighbor and friend. We will miss him everyday. We spoke almost daily, when he was walking the dogs, cooking out, or when he was just out visiting. These talks covered sports, family, politics or just the neighborhood, often over the backyard fence. We watched each others houses during vacations, our children loved his salsa and we just enjoyed his company. This corner of the neighborhood will never be the same without his smile and laughter. Steve was always there and his absence will always be noticed. May God bless you and your family.

Julie and Carlee, I am deeply sorry for your loss. Steve was a dear friend, I will miss all the times he would call me in the middle of the day, sometimes for no reason, don't tell Loy, we talked every week, I will miss him in many ways, this will be a great loss to Casey's. I think I will drive out there Friday to see Steve one more time, once again he will be missed, and I will miss him.

I am truly sorry for your loss. I was shocked to hear the news as he left us way too soon. I worked with Steve at Casey's and considered Steve to be a good friend. He was always the one I turned to for help with parts and he always came thru for me. I know he will be missed by everyone at Casey's. Steve will always live on thru his family, and his friends..

Steve was a vital part of our family here at Casey's. He always gave 100% in helping to support everyone. He was greatly appreciated and will be missed. I enjoyed the many talks Steve and I had about the Hawkeyes whether it was over a victory or a loss. May God bless you and comfort you during this difficult time.
