Lilly BrownI want you to know,,,,Steve was an extremely well liked and respected man. He was a joy to work with. Everyday he came into work with a smile on his face. He has left a huge hole in our work family. Yes we are a close knit group and we all consider each other a work family member. Steve talked so often with such love in his face and voice when he mentioned his grandson and you his wife. That little boy was the true apple of his eye. Teaching him to fish,,,when he spoke he made me smile. He is so missed and very much cared about. The lord blessed you for giving him to you. He is always by your side. Love to you . Lilly
