My families sincerest condolences on the loss of your father. I remember him storming into the "lab", loudly sayin' "Daryl whata ya doin?" I've lost touch with Daryl, and would like to contact him.

I miss you guys a lot.

The last time I met Steve was at Jane Kuesenko’s funeral about 3 ½ years ago. We talked for a while. I remember him asking me where I was living and I told him Texas. When I was growing up our family visited with Steve & Loretta quite often. Steve was a very nice person to know.

Steve was a great guy. I'm sure the speaker industry would not have been the same without him. He help at RDM was appreciated.

You will be dearly missed and thought of often! A holiday or a family celebration at Dale & Sharon's won't be the same without Pops!
You and your family will be in our prayers.

With Love, Steve & Terri Biggs
