To my family. Cindy, Tania, Kristy & Stevie. I will NEVER find the words to bring you complete comfort. Steve left us way to soon. I don't know why life has to hurt so much but I do know that Steve brought so much laughter to our family. I can just see the twinkle in his eyes as he would laugh. Seems like Aunty Marie's garage will never be the same. He will be greatly missed and NEVER, EVER forgotten. Take one day at a time my dear cousins and know that your family is here for you. We love you all very much. We miss you Steve.

Dear Steve, you are gone too soon and we love you and will miss you dearly. To Cindy, Tania, Kristy, Steve and the grandchildren I hope the love and support from everyone that loves you wraps around you tightly and brings you a little more peace each day. I know he will always be in your heart and memories and he will be watching over you. Love to you all.

To Steve's children. Please remembrr you have every reason to grieve..very often a parent's death leaves adult children with a sense of abandonment and some panic that catches you by surprise..It does not matter what the age of a parent or how the death occurred, the pain can be devastating, the sorrow is very deep and so very real.. Keep in mind, although your beloved dad has left your world, he will always live on in your mind and hearts..and in all of the memories you have made together through the years... Pat Dean (Ray's Mom)

Tania Osborne

January 30, 2014

Remembering my rock, my support, my cheerleader, my friend, my kids grandfather and most importantly my dad. I miss him so much I have a hole in my chest and I feel so close to death. I feel robbed by his passing so suddenly, so much life we had yet to share, so much more love to share, so many more memories we were to create. God please give me and my family strength to try and get to the next day. Life as I knew it will never be the same, for I am no longer the same a piece of me died the day he left us.
