Steve, I met you over a decade ago through Mitch and Mason. We have been great friends ever since. All the crazy shenanigans we would get into and all the wild adventures. We shared so many laughs and great experiences growing up. We hung out all through high school and then more afterwards. We all miss you and we all love you bro. You have made a big impact on us all and you will always have a special place all our hearts,  you will truly be missed. Until we meet again brother.

Where do I start. You where such an amazing friend. You helped me through so much. I will always miss our funny conversations we used to have. Especially the group chats. I'll never forget you best friend. RIP <3

Steve, we loved you a lot. But God loved you more. My wonderful friend, you are forever in my heart.

Steve, there has not a day that has passed that you are not forgotten. You will not be forgotten. It's impossible. You were truly one of a kind. Something I always admired in you was you did not give a damn and you were always you.  I hate myself for even saying that in past tense because your presence lives in all of us. For me, not a day goes by where I realize that there is a song that I like, a game that I play, or a reaction that I make to something that has been influenced or inspired by you. We spent almost every day together growing up. We shared a lot of firsts, from our first cigars to our first concerts, to the first holes in our walls and the countless broken video game controllers. I'm still feeling after effects from when we stayed up those countless nights trying to get 100% completion in San Andreas.  But when I take a step back I see everybody you know and met, everybody feels the same way. When they met you, they knew they truly met a one of a kind person, friend, and human being. I am so honored to be your friend man. I don't want to say have been because you are always on my mind and in my heart. I will always be here for you and your family, because you are family. I love you man and thank you for always being you.

Steve.. where do I even begin.. I first met you at Anthony's. We got along very well... same sense of humor.. never a dull moment for any of us with you around. You were so caring and funny.... I wish I could call you one last time .. go to gene and Judes or do anything .... I know we haven't talked this year but last year I have so many great memories with you.. I will never forget .. please watch over us! Miss you so much scuba Steve! Rest in paradise ❤

Steve and his friends spent many weekends at my house hanging out with my son Matt.  I'm sorry he left us so soon.

                                                                     Renee and Mark
                                                                     Mt. Vernon, Ill

I remember riding bikes in the forest preserve all summer back when we were like 14. It was always me, you, Mitch, Mason, Sandra, Roman, Kevin, and Tom. I remember hanging out at Mitch's house with you and all the guys eating hot pockets and playing video games. Don't forget painting our faces and listening to ICP! I had such a great time with you and you were always making me laugh. I'm gonna miss having you as part of the world. Love you Steven!!!

Debbie, Stan I am so sorry for your loss.
My family is keeping your family in our thoughts and prayers and our
heart goes out to you in this difficult time.
