Just love this man.  What an incredible legacy he has left for his beautiful children and grand children.  He loved his family more than life. He talked a lot about how each of them inspired him in ways that were encouraging and uplifting.  He was a man that showed what a true father should be. He was selfless, giving, compassion, patient and kind. He will be missed greatly. I loved our talks when I saw him and he was an inspiration to me as well. 

What can I say about Steven. There are so many funny stories, his laugh, his smile his silliness. When David and Steven were growing up together and he used to try all kinds of stunts, crash test Crabtree is what we called him. The time that him and David had a old office chair and David would pull Steven down Rail Road Diagonal on the dirt road from his 4 wheeler, or the time they had a saucer and Steven put it in the Platte River and David would ride his 4  wheeler on the side and Steven would ride the saucer. Or when we took him to Lake Powell and he would double skied behind the boat with him and David and he lost his shorts. He was such a sweet boy and very good man. We will miss you. Thank you for all the memories. 

Praying for comfort for those who love Stephen. Thanks to everyone who cared, prayed and encouraged him.  You are not alone ❤️

The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit.
Psalms 34:18

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:11‭-‬13

Jeremiah 29:11‭-‬13 

But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

I didn’t know Steve very well, but through his loving Aunt Beverly Hurt, I felt as if I did. For the past eight years we have prayed for him in our bible study. His Aunt loved him so much and was faithful to pray for him constantly . We are so sorry for your loss and are praying for the Lords comforting arms around you. As much as Bev loved him, I am thankful they are now together.

I had the privilege of meeting Stephen when my daughter Kandyce was 14 Stephen saw her and a girlfriend walking and stopped to get her phone number.From that day he was family he made it easy he just had that contagious smile and laugh. Kandyce told me the other night he was the first person that was nice to her when we moved to Greeley he remained her friend and I considered him one of my children we have lots of memories to hold on to and we will miss him dearly.

He was the love of my life and our first "dates" were feeding cows the grass he mowed all day and it was the best  "dates" / time I ever had.. I love you babe and I will Forever love you.  You left us to soon...    and 1 thing I told him on our very 1st date "I eat weird dont judge, but I do Loove meat."..  and that night he stole my heart with " I won't stop until your mine.." I miss you so bad..                   Always and Forever, 
     Your Jennifer..      I wish .......
