    We are going to miss you Steve. You were the 1st neighbor to welcome us into the neighborhood, our daughters grew up together, you were the first to celebrate my sons birth and you were always there to offer help to Chris and I when ever we needed assistance. We will miss you in church on Saturdays. Steve I'm sure you are looking down on us all and you are in a better place. God Bless my brother, RIP
