Steve had a unique personality with a quick wit and hidden talent for humorous and clever writing.  Our most cherished connection belongs to the bright, unforgettable, adventurous days of our early years that bonded us together and Steve carried a steady spirit throughout his life.  He will forever be remembered for his signature Hawaiian shirts, love of dogs, exceptional intelligence, and foundational role he played in our happiest celebrations that will never fade.  Steve’s bond was unbroken by time and his memories will live on forever in our hearts.

There will be no formal service and donations in his honor may be made to the ADA (https://diabetes.org/)
