Steve was a devoted Christian, husband, father and a good friend. He also served his country with the US Coast Guard and retired after years of service.
We have known Steve for twenty plus years. We attended the same Sunday School class at Pinedale Christian Church. Steve was an eager participant in our Sunday School, and he would also be called on to teach on occasion. Steve possessed a Godly wisdom that was self-evident in our many class discussions. One time in particular he said that we were put here on this earth as a test from God to see how we will handle life and the choices that we will make. When Steve prayed, his prayers were filled with the passion that he felt for our Lord and Saviour. It was spiritually uplifting just to hear Steve pray.
Steve treated everyone with kindness and respect. He will truly be missed. Steve we are glad that you are no longer in pain, and you are surrounded by God’s glory in Heaven.
