Steve was a loving and attentive husband, father and grandfather that never missed a little league game or practice. He always lead by example with his unselfishness and unwavering quiet strength. He was a Railroad Man (Santa Fe), amateur electrician, tool & die man (MGM & John Zink). Steve was a licensed pilot who enjoyed model airplanes, a drone enthusiast, President of the Astronomy Club and a very protective and caring children's School Bus Driver.

He has left a hole in our hearts that will only be filled by time and the memories of all the love and wisdom that he imbued us with throughout our time together. We will miss you and love you forever.
