Many fond memories of Steve from Valley Family Church! He was a true man of God and led our hot dog team well! May God’s love, comfort and peace surround Penny and the family.

Steve was the first person I met when we moved to the neighborhood. It was March, and he was walking the neighborhood in his typical shorts (I learned later the shorts were year-around!). Steve stopped and introduced himself as I was cleaning shelves in the driveway. He always greeted us (including our two dogs) with a smile and hello on his walks. He helped me shovel the driveway once when Tim was sick and unable to do it. We will miss his smiling face in the neighborhood. Our thoughts are with Penny and the family.

Though I did not know Steve well, I will always remember him as the man who, even in the winter, would be directing traffic at Valley Family Church wearing burmuda shorts and a winter coat with a big smile on his face. He always seemed like such a kind and gentle man, and will surely be missed by many who had the blessing of knowing him. I pray that the good Lord brings comfort and peace to Penny and the children, and that there will be many moments of fond memories shared as a family led by a husband and father who loved the Lord.

Prayers and memories are what to have to remember and remain in ore hearts and thoughts forever. A gentle soul ascended heaven . I huggedhim at the door at valley groceries on Tuesdays. He will always hold a very special place in my heart for his kindness was always there in his smile. Psalms 34-18 The Lord is close to broken hearts. Married 5-4 Blessed are those that mornfor they shall comforted. I had the privilege to know Steven and was so proud to call him my friend. My son also is in heaven as he passed away at 56 nine weeks ago. His name was also Steven. . Your Steven always asked about him and kept me and my boy in his prayers. Even though he was dealing with his own health issues he had the time for me Such a wonderful loving g man. I will miss him.

We have such fun memories of Steve as our fearless leader in charge of the hot dog grilling team as we churned out thousands and thousands of hot dogs at various Valley Family Church community outreach events over the years. Our deepest condolences go out to Penny and your family.
