Dear Steve, I never would have thought, when we first met on Cullom over 30 years ago, that we would have become such good friends. All the times we have shared have made me look at you as part of my family, my 'big brother'. From the time you helped my mom carry my grandfather up the stairs when he was sick, and when you and I were in that car accident and you grabbed the back of my shirt so that I didn't go flying through the windshield, and our favorite, when you walked into the delivery room as I was about to deliver Ashley. I think that was the one and only time I seen you embarrassed :). My children will always remember their 'Uncle Steve', and Ronnie and I will always remember what a great friend you were. We love you, and we will miss you, but we know that you are no longer in pain. Ride on 'big brother'.......The Bernstein Family

To Putz & Cheesy our deepest heartfelt condolences. Our thoughts & prayers will continue along with the memories of Cheesy. The times, in spite of everything he was going through, that he made it over to our house to hang with us. He will be missed & never forgotten. He was truly blessed in this life to have such a strong wife who he could always count on. May God Bless you both & The entire Gibbons Family. All Our Love, Pat, Bill & Billy Lunn.
