I will always remember Steve as a very loving and caring man. He would come once in a while to the office and tell us what a great teacher Linda is and what a wonderful person she is. When someone voices out their deepest secrets of their heart and you find out that is love, and caring, and understanding, then you have only respect for such a person and that is Steve.
