I didn't really know him until after high school when several of us hung out a few times. I really like him. Sorry to hear of his passing.

I was really saddened to hear of Steves passing. We were good friends through high school and much of college. Spent many happy days at his family home on Ellicot Creek listening to Steve pick his banjo. Remembering the time we attempted to brew our own beer in his basement,most of the bottles blew up and his mom was really mad at the mess. First or second year of college we saved for a trip to Europe, bought motorcycles in london with another friend , Eric Schmidt of Amherst and traveled for 2 months having many adventures I'll never forget. Always wanted to get in touch with Steve, but to my regret , since he didn't post to the school wevv site wasn't able to locate him. He will be missed. Praying that God will strengthen his family and give them peace.

Sorry to hear about Steve's passing. We were friends in high school and took a road trip in his VW bug to Saginaw Michigan to see Don Stinson. I recall that Don was engaged to Briique Garber who live up there. Great fun.

Steve lived 2 doors away from my Phillies cousins and I have fond memories of coming to visit my cousins as a young child when we still lived in Boston before our move to Williamsville when I was in grade 8. Inevitably my brother, my cousins, Steve and his older brother, Mark, and I would join forces in some games running around the backyards and along the Creek. We had little contact after high school although I would hear about him and his family occasionaly from my aunt. May Steve rest in peace.

Sad to hear of Steve's passing. Steve was my best man at my wedding back in 1975. I remember great times with him and his brother Mark, sitting around the house on oak grove drinking beer and telling stories. Steve was a fine guitar player and a great banjo player. We had many a good time and he will be missed.
