Although i love writing to you on here, it's not the only way I talk to you.  I talk to you daily,  whether in my dreams or aloud. You will always  know how much I love you.

I've looked up to the skies as tears fall from my eyes. What's heaven like way up there? Is it neat, fluffy white, and carefree? I close my eyes but can not see. I hope it's peaceful, gentle and kind. I let go and it circles in my mind. Can you do whatever you please? Without falling to your knees? Does it storm or rain? Can you feel any pain? Do you watch from afar and smile from above? Do you know how much you are loved! Time passes but has stood still. I look for signs beyond my window sill. If only to see you laugh and smile, even for just a little while. I'll close my eyes and hope for the best. As I pray you are peaceful and at rest. 
Merry Christmas in Heaven.

Happy Birthday..... I love and miss you .

One year ago today our lives changed forever. You are  forever in our hearts. To the moon and back...

The last nine months have been filled with fond memories and grief. We shed tears and smile at our memories.  The constant reminders of you are everywhere.  Not a day goes by that you are not a part of... The rain, the sun, the moon and the stars.  You will forever be in our hearts. We miss you! Rest easy angel eyes, rest easy.

You have a new angel among you. His time here was cut short tragically. May he rest peacefully among you and those who left us to soon. 
Watch over us Stephen, this does not get any easier. The pain doesn't go away, you just learn to live with it. 
To the moon and back <3

You gave me the best. Thank you. Happy Fathers Day Stephen !

spring is here and you are not.  How strange is that.  I have missed our Monday phone calls.  I just left foxwoods and I wondered what you would of said.  zy loves his little tykes golf set.  I have to get him a bucket of balls.  Remember the time with Madison and nick at your house that was a great day.  miss you tee michelle

As each day passes i cant quite tell if the pain gets better or worse. There is no great progress but i get up each morning and move foward with the day as i know you'd want me too. Some days i feel like lying in bed all day and honestly i circum to that state for maybe a few hours but then i get my head straight and realize this is not how you'd want me to be. Im doing very well in class as im sure you know. As the class comes to an end, my excitement and drive to get licensed hightens with the thought of following in your footsteps. Ive been told everyone has a purpose on this earth, which is sometimes hard to figure out but i think i have. I have already stepped outside the box when it comes to being a carpenter but now i believe i have a new calling. One that will greatly impact others, one that we can both share together. No worries though, i do not plan on giving up carpentry, it will simply be an added bonus to my new path in life. I know whole heartedly that you would approve of my recent choices and support me every step of the way. I understand its a demanding career, physically and especially mentally, but im blessed with many special angels to keep me level headed and healthy. I can not wait to take this next adventure with you and im sure many other angels by my side. I love you so much more than you know. Until the day we meet again

I could use a good Stevie story right now. Your are forever on my mind.. What I would give to have you back here with us! It's been a tough few months, each day brings more memories, tears and laughs. Love you forever, wish I could have saved you.

Today was a pretty rough day, but things seem to turn around pretty well. On my way to class I talked to you and Jadabug the entire time. I asked you guys to give me strength and patience, to be level headed and thoroughly think each question through, and while taking 175 question exam I've never felt more calm and confident in myself. The proof will be in my grade when I get it back but I have a feeling that I did pretty darn well. I especially want to thank you and my babygirl for that. I love and miss you both terribly.

Dale Earnhardt Jr !!!  I know you cheered him on the whole way. He made  Sr proud I'll bet.

I try to be strong but what is strength? Without you here, nothing is and ever will be the same. It feels like yesterday i held your hand and poured my heart out to you. Those days we had together will always be in my heart. I feel you every day i drive to work. I swear you and Jadabug always take that ride with me to keep me safe. School is going well and i believe its my new calling in life. I know on my first call after i graduate ill have you watching from above keeping me calm and level headed. Give our family the strength to move forward with every day that passes. I love you tons

As minutes become hours and hours become days... Time passes. As the days become weeks and the weeks become months...time passes. 
There is nothing I wouldn't do to bring you back home.... You left a void , an emptiness. A feeling of alone. 
You had so much more life to live , so much more love to give. Your body was broken ...fragile at best, this was now your time to rest. 
That day in November is forever in my head. I thought and I prayed and your death was delayed. However hard the next eight days were to be.. We had our time.. Our time to set you free.  We knew you were gone and it was our time to grieve , God said to you it was time to leave. 
With every memory made, every tear that we've cried.. We'll love you forever, as if you never died ??

I was clicking through the channels the other night and saw some figure skating. I wonder if you got to see the face plant! It was a good one, you would have loved it! Never forget those times! Still wierd I thought I saw you the other day in Occum, I waved and honked, then stopped and cried...I wish things were different here sometimes. A boy in my program lost his dad the other day, and he sat with me on the bus. He said "I need to tell you something, my dad went to heaven" and I thought of you, and dad, and so many we have lost. It's been so painful, I went home and I hugged mine just a little bit longer that night. For whatever reason today my heart is heavy with thoughts of you. You will be missed, thank you for the memories Tee. I will cherish them all! And BTW where did you ever get those balloons that you put the money in for the kids?? Ugh, if only there was a Heaven reply button. *Sigh* Rest peacefully Tee.

I think of you everyday ! I miss you more than anyone can imagine. Things are so different without you here. I trust God has a bigger plan.... I wonder, I cry , and I push forward. Forever in my heart .

Miss you tons Dad. Every time i go to your house it still feels like youre going to be sleeping on the couch. My beauiful baby girl Jada was always my support but now shes with you. Please tell her i love her with all my heart and im so sorry i couldnt save her. My heart aches for you both so badly but you and Jadabug have a big job ahead of you. You both need to watch over Uncle Carl and make him better. Give us the strength to continue on without you. My heart is broken but i know you and Jada wouldnt want me to cry. I love you both with every single breath I take <3

Take care of our baby Jada, she's with you now

2014 is here, some how time goes on. You may be gone but you'll never be forgotten ! When you left you took a piece of me with you.  I cherish all that we had. Until we meet again Stephen ....,

As our year ends I'm thinking of you Tee.... Rest easy my friend

Polly,Joshua,Jeremy,Alexandria my sincere condolences for your loss. I truly wish that I could have been there for all of you. Though time and distant cannot change the feelings of family. Your dad was a great person and a close part of our family for many years. He will be sadly missed by many and he will always be watching over you all from afar to make sure you are all safe. God bless all of you and remember all the good times. Love always uncle john.

Snow day !!! We enjoyed those. 
Think of you everyday Until we meet again my friend , rest easy.

~Wishing you a happy birthday among the stars~

Tee you will be missed dearly. I hope you know that you will always be in my heart.  Love Michelle

One of the kindest and gentlest people there ever was. Rest in peace, Tee

Forever in our hearts! Rest Peacefully in the arms of an Angel Tee!!!

Steve my Friend
Oh how the time and distance my have kept us afar, but you were always one of my Best Friends and of course my brother..... When you married my little Sister I had no problems for I know who she picked. You have always been there in thick & thin, good & bad no matter what. You were more like my Dad than I, so when them three Wonderful children came along they had it made... Now it's time to sit back and watch from a distance, lending an ear. And when it's needed a hint of guidance from afar. Let them know your there with your every waking minute and keep them safe. May Polly, Josh, Jeremy & Alex know you are in a better place and may you Rest In Peace Sir till we meet again. With the Love of a Best Friend & Brother, Always Carl and Paula Steinke
