Rest in peace, my old friend. We go back a long ways as friends and coworkers. I will see you in heaven. - Larry Murray
Steve always had a smile on his face and was happy to see you. He loved sharing his faith with anyone. We had some good biblical discussions during his lighting installation in our home. Also, he would give my girls a quarter when they saw him at church. He was a Sooner fan & would share stories with Sam. Prayers for the family during these hard times. - Amy Conner
Big Steve as I called him and knew him as I met him and his family almost 46 years ago when we went to St Luke's Episcopal Church to me Steve was larger than life so that's why I refer to him as Big Steve because he was a kind wonderful man but he was also a little bit overwhelming to 11-year-old kid. I am grateful that I knew him. I'm grateful that I knew the whole family - Charlotte Fernalld
