Steve was always known for his joyful spirit, generosity, and willingness to help others. He never knew an enemy and considered everyone a friend. When Steve was not working, he enjoyed spending time with his family, camping, watching NASCAR, scuba diving, and helping others. Steve was a kind and gentle soul always willing to help others. In honor of his memory, we would love to encourage everyone to do an act of kindness in his name…. whether it would be helping a neighbor, friend, or stranger. When you do this think of him. Due to Covid-19 private services will be held for the family. Memorials can be made to the Riverside Healthcare Foundation earmarked for Partners in Caring. Nothing would make Steve happier than to know that donations from his memorial were able to help co-workers in need.
