I am at a loss for words. Knowing this wonderful ,caring, and loving man that he was will always be in my heart forever. We spoke daily, I say this because sitting at the reception desk , he had to walk by my desk to the vending machine to have his "orange juice " fix. One would think that he was a kid with a bag full of candy , he was so happy when he finally had his orange juice. If the vendor put in 50 in the soda machine, I guarantee you Steve bought 48 of them. I loved his stories of his family he was so proud of all of them , I loved it when he told me he went shopping and that for me to expect BIG , BIG packages for his family. I got the biggest kick out of the one package that he was receiving and he wanted to get home so he can can start setting up a computer for his nephew. He was always so excited he also had a way to make me laugh just his peppyness throughout the day made you wonder what was going through is head. Steve wanted to make sure that I was going to be okay and that if I needed a reference for a new job I had better use him. Our last conversation was about his motorcycle and that he was going to take some time off and ride in the country side and enjoy life just a little bit . Steve , others may toast you with a beer, my Friend , my buddy , I raise a orange juice to you in your honor. Debra
