Steve was a triple transplant patient and battled kidney disease for the last 20 yrs. He was kind of heart and generous to those he called friends; serving as an inspiration to all of us while he displayed strength of character and courage until his final day. Quick to laugh and slow to criticize, Steve had an exceptional ability to always make others comfortable, even through the most trying of times. Perhaps his greatest gift was as a mentor and role model for his younger brother, Tom. Steve will be missed by everyone who knew him.
