Melinda and I are are truly sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved Steve. We never knew him, but Ted spoke of Steve many times. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family. With our sympathy Jack and Melinda I am deeply saddened at the passing of my good friend.Steve along with our other poker players always called me coach weve been together more than two decades.You can imagine the memories we have.I just wanted to let you know that I had spoken to Steve a couple of times in the last week. the first on Monday right after he left the court for his driving infraction. He was very distraught.John Phillips and I had made plans to take him to lunch that day.But Steve said he wasnt really up to it,he had some things to take care of.On Tuesday I stopped by his house to talk to him but he didnt answer the door .I didnt think it to strange ,because sometimes he wanted his privacy. The next day I stopped by again with the same response. Knowing he was home I called him as soon as I reached home he answered the phone I told him I was really concerned about him. That this was another hump in the road,and he agreed.It was a few minute coversation and then goodbye. I just felt in my heart something wasnt right.It was Friday when I returned home that I found out that my friend had past.Steve and I would always go out for wings and a couple of beers before the poker games just him and I. Thats was when you would see a different Steve when you were away from a crowd.We would talk about his children about the strained relationship with his son which I know weight heavy with emotion on him and his two daughters who were Daddys little girls.I have lost my friend but will keep the memories of him deep in my heart.I loved him,like a brother and will miss him dearly.May God Bless us all in these very trying time Sincerely Douglas Fitch As a classmate of Steve's, I was sad to hear of his loss. May he rest and have peace with the Lord and may his family find comfort at this difficult time. Barbara J. Root My deepest sympathy to Mr. Steves family.I will miss him very much. He was a star in my life and always will be remembered as such. I wish i could have helped him in some small way. My thoughts are with you. The sudden lose of Steve has left me heartbroken... I can't imagine the hearts of his family... My prayers go out to them, especially his two beautiful daughters that were the center of his world... He is at peace now. But I sure am gonna miss you "handsome", hope to laugh and get bear hugs from you when we meet again someday...Love Steve's family would like to thank everyone for their prayers and kind words. We loved him very much and he will be terribly missed. May the good lord be with you at your time of sorrow! I have know Steve for the last forty years from the days of working together at Widewaters he was quite the character and always had that great smile. He could always make you smile when things were bad. I will pray for you all. Greg Almost 40 years have passed since I met you. We've spoken a few times, and you always made me smile. We will miss your face next month at the reunion, won't be quite the same without you there. RIP my old friend, til we meet again. Cindy Taylor Hey ;
