We are so sorry to read about Steves passing. We were good friends while we were all at the University of Northern Iowa School of Music together, and Steve played trumpet in a brass group at our wedding. Mike and Steve were both Phi Mu Alpha music fraternity alumna. We always treasured Steves sarcastic wit.
