A few  weeks ago, I received a brief letter from Steve's wife informing me that Steve had passed in May of 2018.  I have many good memories of time spent with Steve - a good friend he was.  We spent countless hours running and playing sports together at an earlier age.  Steve was a good athlete, wise with knowledge - but in my eyes, his greatest gift was that he treated others as more important than himself.  For the lives that he has touched - he will be truly missed.  

                                                   Your friend, Clark

Clark,

It is such a shock, when someone we knew so well died in the past and yet we just heard about it.  It might as well have been today or yesterday, instead of three plus years ago..

May you be comforted, in this your time of distress.

It is a shock to hear we were in scouts together Steve was a thoughtful caring man I know he ran track in high school the times in scouts were such a joy with Steve around and the times we had at camp and all the hikes were fun but you didn't want Steve to led for he would always be way ahead and we had to slow him down blessings to Steve's family

I am so saddened to hear of Steve’s passing. Of all the classmates I never heard about or saw again, he is one of those I most hoped to have seen or heard about again. There was something stoic and deep in him greatly apparent even when we first met in junior high, qualities that never faded over the six years I knew him, in band, in track, and in classes. I had thought then that the stoic quality, especially, might have come because I too heard that he had a chronically ill father at home. Thus, Ellen, I am extra grateful that you found the memorial post—and yes, that’s him—because there was a lightness of being in him that wasn’t there before. I am touched, too, to see he became a public school teacher, obviously committed to excellence, given his role in the magnet program. I admired him as kid, and how many classmates did we have about whom we felt that, and am sorry I never had a chance to tell him that years later. Ah me. A good and lovely man. I hope someone might find a way to share our comments with his wife, perhaps by contacting Banning High? Thanks, all, for your comments and recollections.
