To my wonderful Chris-
Nothing could ever prepare anyone for something as tragic as this. I know that there are so many memories with your dad you’ll miss. When your heart hurts, my heart hurts too.

Such a sudden and unfortunate incident of a loss of a wonderful person. I knew Steve very well and he was a great person. Anytime he was asked anything he would say sure no problem. He would always go out of his way to help people. I saw Steve every day and he was very smart,strong and dependable. He is a great man we have so unexpectedly lost About 10 yrs ago on the job he was nicknamed Stevie Wonder and it stuck so on the job he was known as “Wonder”
I am really gone to miss him.
God bless you all.
