    I remember Steve from a couple of times he took Brian and I fishing with him. He made me feel welcome immediately and I enjoyed my time in the boat with the two brothers. Sincerely, Kent

    In typical Jeffery fashion, Steve’s smile could light up a room. I remember some of the earlier times our families spent together. They were great carefree times full of so many laughs. He’s gone far too soon and, as we’ve learned, he will always be a part of our biography. We’ll never forget. Love, Jan

    Our sincerest condolences to Carol, Mike and family.
