We will forever love and miss you 🐢. This has been the hardest year of our lives without you.  The Balderama Family


Man steve i miss you every day. It's been 5 months already since I've lost the best stepdad I could've ever asked for. I'm writing this because I miss you so much and not a day goes by where I don't think about you. You may have not been perfect and we may have argued a bit sometimes but that never stopped me from loving you so much.  You made all of us so happy with your jokes. You made my mom the happiest I've ever seen her and I'm so happy you had those wonderful children, my siblings, Lexi and Legend with my mother. I love my step-siblings 
 Caynin,Desiree,and Illiana as well. Everytime i look at them i see you. I can't wait to see you again. I love you and miss you.

RIP best dad ever i will never forget you💔💐

Brother Steven Gonzales, 
You were ALWAYS so kind and respectful to me!  Even on those days when you were feeling a little rough around the edges.  You welcomed me, and you were so conscientious of my presence, wanting to be certain that I was comfortable and felt welcomed; such a tremendous host (It was almost embarrassing sometimes).  Your smile was contagious,  but your laugh... Oh, my... I know it's enough to make anyone cry right now, who watches a video, and who remembers that happy laugh of yours, that came from a cheerful moment!  You just enjoyed smiling, and you enjoyed laughing.  You would pick on your brother and sisters just to be able to laugh with, and at, them!  That's how I saw it, anyway!  
You had a funny side, you had a crazy side, you had a pleasant side and you had a serious side too!  You were so passionate and demonstrative.  God loves passionate people, and I know He loved it when you went to Church and you melted in His Presence.  
The last video I watched of you, you were waking up your kids for Church.  They were up yakking until 3 AM, I believe, and instead of being angry at them, you laughed... you laughed because you got the chance to wake them up early for Church, and watch them squirm like little worms that were dug up from their comfortable bed... a happy father, a happy son who loved his parents sooo much, and a happy brother most of the time, because you were able to get under you sister Stefanie's skin so easily.  You really enjoyed that, and I think it's because there are SO FEW people who understood your passion better than she did!  We miss you, Mijo!

Can’t believe you’re gone unc :( you were my closest family besides my momma and siblings. Going home to the valley will never be the same. Love and miss you always uncle Steve.

Damn primo. It sucks cuz we were getting to know each other after we found out we were related when you moved down from Cali. Especially the time when I was getting picked on and with no hesitation you had my back. I will never forget that. You told me you would always be there for me when I needed you. I wish we had more time since the last time I  saw you at discount tire. I will remember the times we had together In school. Good times. RIP primo. Love you man. May GOD bless your family during this time. 

Steven may you RIP you were a very good friend with all my Adult Children Andrea Rincon,Yvette Kieth,Tanya Rodriquez and John Blas Garcia we lived on the 2 story house on Pamelo Rd. Remember  you are a beautiful  person and enjoyed you with all  the family.Our deepest Comdolences from our family to yours,we will always love you 🙏🙏🙏❤❤

I don't have just one favorite memory...because every single visit with Turtle...Steven was the best.   But I will say my very favorite visit with him was meeting Caynin for the 1st time.  He was the proudest daddy and had such a deep love for his children and his family.  Steven always prayed with me when I was sad.. knew how to be gangster when someone was giving me a hard time ...told me everything I cooked was the best and always reminded me that the devil was a lie and that faith the size of a mustard seed could move mountains.  I will forever miss Steven and his nose and cherish each and every time we shared with him always.  knowing he's rejoicing in Jesus presence is the only thing that makes his absence bearable.  The entire Balderama family loves you Steve Steve aka uncle Turtle..our favorite dirtbag jerkface in the entire planet. Raaaaiiiderrrs. Please watch over my family Steven. 

Steve, my best friend or rather brother because that’s the way it feels in my heart.  We been through so much. We worked out together and our favorite muscles were the “Chest” (In Jim Carrey language) we beat people up when we were young and always called eachother brother. I know we went through problems but no friendship is perfect. I’m glad we made up and we were suppose to kick it when you got back. We talked to eachother a lot this past few months. Especially the weekend where God took you. We talked all weekend. Damn bro I’m so sad. I was looking forward to watch a game and bbq like we planned the last time we talked. Damn I miss you bro. This is so hard. I want you to know that I love you and you will always be in my heart because that is where you are alive. My song I dedicate to you is Shorty want to be a thug by Tupac because you loved that song and did the c walk to it. Love and miss you brother. RIP my best friend and brother.

So young and such and handsome man. I will never forget your laugh and beautiful smile and those eyes Jesus those eyes😍 . i love you my love and I'll miss you and see you everyday through our children
