Three years big brother. You are missed every day. I was just remembering when I was in California with Ethan and Aiden in 2020 and Ethan lost his glasses in the ocean. You came right away and took him to the eye doctor to get a new pair. You were always there for everyone. Love you always. See you in my dreams.

Two years, big brother. How can that be? I still reach for the phone to call you. I miss you so much. You aren’t forgotten and you are loved so much. I was so lucky to have you as my big brother. Enjoy heaven. Love, your little sister.

STEVE,

Always on our mind
Forever in our heart

Love and miss You


Happy birthday, Steve. You would have been 59 this year (old man). I think of you every day and want to pick up the phone to call you so often. Thank you for visiting me in my dreams. It helps a little. Please know you are so loved and so missed down here. Love you, big brother.

Happy Birthday in Heaven, Son.
Missing you.
Love, always.

Mom and Dad

One year, Steve. 
I think of you so much. 
I miss you every single day. 
I know you are at peace, but it is still so hard knowing you are gone.
So often I still pick up the phone to call you.
Please know how loved and missed you are, my big brother.

Today marks one year since God took you home.  We miss you every day.  Your absence is felt by all.  We love you always, Steve.
Your loving family.

The time I spent with Steve will never be enough.  We spent every moment we could together -- even if it meant doing absolutely nothing.  He was the most genuine, kind, and caring person I have ever had the pleasure of knowing, and he was taken from those who loved him far too soon.

I know he has touched many people's lives with his good humor, feisty spirit, and willingness to always help anyone who needed it.  He was a good, honest man who loved his family dearly -- especially his daughter, Amanda, who was the light of his life.   

Heaven may have welcomed another beautiful soul, but the loss of Steve's presence here is felt deeply.  I will continue to remember him for the one-of-a-kind, wonderful man that he was:  the man who brought laughter and joy to all those around him.

I will miss Steve always, as will my own children, but I am grateful he will be spending the rest of eternity surrounded by love, light, and God's glory.

I have been truly blessed to have Steve in my life.

Love, Coleen



Steve was a great employee and a wonderful person.  There was never a time he wasn’t happy to help or give 110%.  
His attitude and behavior showed that he was funny, caring, thoughtful, kind and a very hard worker.
We were lucky to have him as an employee and he will be greatly missed among all of us.

Oceans Eleven Casino -

I will miss our conversations, from sports to life.  Even before your passing, whenever I go to a ballgame, I would remember how you told me the amount of peanut shells on the floor in front of my seat would indicate how great the game was.  You gave me a lot of smiles and laughs, but most of all, memories that I have cherished for years.  Now those memories are even more special, little treasures, that have will forever be in my heart.  You will be missed.

Steve was a great friend we worked together at Becky's and Cliff Castle. We had some great times working along side if each other. He helped me threw a difficult time in my life he was like a brother to me. He was a great listener and always gave me great advice.  I use to tease him about how perfect his hair was all the time not one hair out of place. I will truly miss him . He will always be in my ❤.  Love ya Steve

How can this be REAL?  We can't believe this is REAL.  We lost our 
beloved son, Steve, August 19, 2021.  Steve is remembered as good looking, smart, hardworking, honest, loyal, and feisty who spoke exactly what was on his mind.  A loving, caring father who will be tremendously missed.  When he worked in the family business for over 20 years, he overlooked real estate marketing and everything else in the business.  He had a great personality and was well liked by all.  He was very vocal and energetic when playing board and card games.  He liked to keep everything in order and was especially meticulous with his hair.  Steve would call daily to see how we are doing.  We were so looking forward to seeing him.  He would just be there for everyone.  Miss you with all our heart.  He will not be forgotten.  
Those we love remain with us for love itself lives on,
and cherished memories never fade because a loved one's gone ...
Those we love can never be more than a thought apart,
for as long as there is memory, they live on in the heart.
Forever in our hearts - your loving family. 

It is such sad news hearing that Steve has passed away. Those of us in Northern Arizona, who love playing the game of poker, will all miss him. Easily one of everyone's favorite dealers, it was always fun to play when Steve was the dealer. 

Steve always had a smile for everyone, even for those grumpy individuals who were having a bad day. The world needs more guys like Steve.    

Steve Hugeri, of San Marcos, California, passed away on Thursday, August 19, 2021, at the age of 57.
Steve was born to Elizabeth and Otto Hugeri in St. Louis, Missouri on December 12, 1963, the oldest of the three siblings.
His family moved to Illinois, which is where he spent most of his childhood years. Growing up, Steve often played the mediator between the siblings. A running joke in the family is how even though he was the oldest, he had to sit in the middle hump of the backseat of the car to keep the peace. He loved the mountains in Colorado and it was his favorite place. He was the type of person who always offered to help before you even asked. Anyone who met him would immediately feel at ease and get along with him. Even though he was a kind person, he had a feisty side to him and he loved to have riveting conversations about anything from politics to religion. 
When he was a teenager, his family moved to Arizona. As an adult, he was very hard working and had a successful career in real estate marketing working in the family business for 20 years. During this time, he had his daughter, Amanda, with Krisztina Czako. Amanda became his everything and he was the most devoted and loving father to her. He doted on his only child and they had a very strong father-daughter bond. 
Eventually, the opportunity came to change careers and he decided to show his more playful side and he became a poker dealer at a casino in Prescott, Arizona. While there, he met his significant other, Coleen Watson, and they moved to San Marcos, California, where he worked at another casino. The patrons and coworkers at both casinos only have fond and fun memories of him. He had an infectious laugh that would just make you smile when you heard it.
He is survived by his daughter, Amanda; significant other, Coleen; mother, Elizabeth; father, Otto; brother, Bob; sister, Jeannie; nephews, Nick and Aiden.
He will be immensely missed by all whose lives he touched. This world lost a good one.
