Steve and I attended church together as teenagers and he worked with my Dad at John Deere. My memories of Steve are all good, he was a truly great person then and I feel confident he remained that way. My condolences to his family.

When there were family gatherings, Steve and Judy were always present. Steve was quiet yet willing to visit. What I did notice was how he would set and look at his family, and you could see the love and pride he had for each one. Steve will be missed, but he will always be remembered with joy.
Love you, Stacey. I am sending a warm, loving hug
