Thank You Steve,

You were my guitar teacher, and gave me so much more, than the $10 I gave you for an hour of your time!

You brought music into my live...and it still lives here! I am eternally grateful!

Rock On!!!

Marion and Family

As I thought back many years to the time Don and I asked Steve if he would teach our Grandson Collin to play the guitar, it brought a smile to my face.

Steve was very patient and gradually there was music!

At Don's remembrance service we asked Steve if he would take part with a song and also play with Collin and he gladly said "Yes".

Steve will be missed by all of us and we pray that the words of the community bring comfort and peace to you his family.

Marion I am so sorry for your loss. Please accept my condolences, may you find peace in your memories.

sorry for your loss he will be missed by so many praying for you all his music will play on in heaven

It is with fond memories and sadness that I write this letter.

He was a good man and a good friend to my dad back in the day.

When you saw him along your way, he always had time to chat to see how things were going - even if he was in a hurry.

The things I remember most about Steve are baseball and the band. It seemed like he was at almost every game for his boys when they played slow-pitch in Hudson Township. He was very supportive of them and to the others who played baseball with them.

I'm glad to have known him and my condolences to the family.

He will be missed.

Marian so sorry to hear of your loss, our condolences to the family.

We really enjoyed his music, he will be missed by many.

Kathy and Marty Foley

Dear Myriam and family. Please accept our deepest condolences. We had the pleasure of seeing Steve and Ian play at the Meteor last year. That is the memory of Steve we will have in our hearts. Fred and Carmen.

Marian I am so sorry for your loss. Life seems so unfair at times. Through the years we definitely shared a few laughs. At the Crew from New dance a few years ago with Steve and his band playing we danced our faces off. An awesome entertainer. Hugs to you and may you find the strength you need to get through such a loss.
