Steve, I will miss your very witty humor and wild personality. I enjoyed our trips to the pawn shops here in San Antonio and in Portland in search of that elusive electronic part/item. All my love to you. Your friend, Pete

Oddly, my first recollections of Steve were at the Park City Snow School and in Colorado during the Wolf Creek Summit install... if memory serves me right. He later moved to Utah and then to Portland. Steve was indeed a unique and interesting fellow. I likened him to Mr. Gadget. Once you met Steve, you never forgot him. He will be missed in this world.

Steve was an Awesome person. So dedicated to his work that he would drive down on days when he shouldn't have.  Steve would help you in any way he could.  He had a heart of Gold! I will miss him dearly!  Take care my friend!

Miss you, Schteeve!  Fly free!  Your cousin, Sam

We have known and loved Steve throughout his troubled life beginning with his very premature birth and the early loss of his sweet mother.  He lived with us, his uncle and aunt, for the following summer.  His ability in childhood to take things apart and figure out how they work predicted his professional success.  His many difficulties trying to find his place in personal relationships brought us sorrow, as did his failing health that led to his untimely passing.  We will miss him.

Steve, we shared so many good times keeping SNOTEL masters operational. You will be missed so much. Rest in peace my friend.

Steve was a beautiful and colorful individual; a living definition of the salt of the earth. Until we meet again, rest in peace my kind, gentle uncle. I love you, and I will miss you.

I will miss you Steve. I spent more time with Steve in his younger days. I am glad we were able to visit over Thanksgiving.

Steve was a good uncle. My memories of him are warm, funny, and somewhat shrouded in mystery. He and I weren't all that close during the last 20 years. But he is still my uncle and therefore his loss represents a hole in my heart. Rest in peace, Uncle Steve. Thanks for the good memories.

May you rest in peace Steven Cómo Familia te agradecemos todo lo bueno que fuiste con todos nosotros tus  pensamientos fueron del corazón gracias por compartir tu risa y tu voz qué dios te acompañe hoy y para siempre, Amen.

Steve was unique person but a talented el tech. His skills will be missed. I worked with him from the beginning of his time in Salt Lake.

Our sincere condolences from the Staff of the Salt Lake City Data Collection Office, NRCS, USDA - Snow Survey where Steve began his career as an electronics technician for the Snow Survey Program. he was a valued team member and made contributions to our program.  thanks steve.

Steve was one of a kind and will live on in my memory forever. He had a hard life but never failed to bring joy to those around him. It was a pleasure to work with Steve and an honor to call him a friend.

Praise the ship!
