Steven Chandler Obituary

Steve was one of my best friends in highschool. He was always there for me when I needed a good friend.

I remember when Barb and Steve

adopted Jason. He was so proud. Then when Jessie came along he was so excited. I remember fishing with Barb, Steve and the kids.

Getting kicked out of the golf

courses and dodging the bugs.



Barb,

I wish you and yours all the

happiness, love and memories that life holds.



To all the Chandlers,

Your son and brother was a very special man. He will never be forgotten.

My sincere condolences to the Chandler family.



I first met Steve last August during a business lunch. I was immediately struck with his genuine warmth and kindheartedness. Although he had stepped into my life for but a brief moment, I felt we had been friends forever.



Steve's warmth and compassion lives on in the souls of those he has touched.

Dear Chandlers,

We were so stunned to learn about Steve. Our hearts go out to you along with our prayers. May your warmest memories of Steve bring you comfort during this time of sorrow.

Love,

Your old neighbors,

Audrey & Richard

Happy Birthday Steve. We just wish you could be here to celebrate with us. Stay tough Jessie.

Rich, Jon and Family,

We were so saddened to hear of the loss of your brother, Steve. We remember when he was hospitalized at the end of the baseball season. Even though we didn't know your family very well, it was easy to see how close all of you were.

Nothing is as painful as losing someone you love. Use the support

of your friends and family...it is invaluable.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this very difficult time.

I'm so very sorry to hear about Steve. I still have some great memories of him when he was a student at Buffalo Grove HS. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

God Bless

Chandler Family,

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Steve. There are no words to express my sympathy, only know that our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this time. I know how much Trevor and Samantha though of their uncle and just how much his life influenced Jon's. He was a great brother to Jon, and I'm sure there are lots of fine qualities that will be passed on through the family because of him. Again, our deepest sympathy. -Bob and Joyce Plechaty

Adeline and I were saddened to hear the news yesterday Steve had passed away. It was only a short time ago we all enjoyed attending Jessica's Batmitzvah. Although there isn't much we can say or do to help all of you through this, know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.

To the Chandler Family,

My heart is heavy on this day,prayers and peace be with you.



Rosemary,Ashley and Jeff

Chandler Family-



My deepest condolences to you at this time of your great loss. I'll always remember Steve calling the store and changing his voice to hear my reaction. Barb-don't worry, the store will be just the way you left it. Jessie-take care of yourself and your mother. And Jason, take care of yourself, your mother, and Jessie. From what I know, Steve LIVED THE DASH.
