Steve. A man of fortitude. Cruising down the teeter totter of cancer, while exhibiting a true warriors mentality, he never gave up. He never let the sickness define him. He laughed at the face of cancer with love.
With a work ethic that was beyond commendable, he constantly challenged his mind with putting the pieces back together. He never did find a puzzle he couldn’t solve.
His love for mentoring those around him was beyond evident. Whether it be helping Josh with his van, to talking with Matt about his love for cars, or showing his sons how to be a man.
Steve was married on November 11, 2011, in the world’s smallest chapel…he dedicated his life to loving wife, until his last breath. We love you Steve. You. Are. Perfect.
He was preceded in death by: Father, Bernard; Mother, Margaret; Big Brother, Ronnie; Big Sister, Judy; dogs, Dutchess, Piggy and Tonka.
Survivors include: Dedicated Loving Wife, Karen; Big Brothers, John and Jerry; Big Sisters, Mary, Susan and Nancy; Favorite Child, Jaime (Michael) Whitsitt; Chosen Son, Nate (Ashley) Daniel; War Hero, Jeff (Priya) Daniel; Youngest Treasured Buddies, James, Alisha, Atlas, Landon, Lillyana, Ronak, and Akash; and most importantly, his 1969 Chevy Van.
Norm & Charlotte Combs he ws the best neighbor you would want.
Our deepest condolences. We miss him.
I hope he saves me a parking space. So we can hang out in a better place.
He was a great neighbor & friend to my husband Dean & I since we moved across from his Mother in the summer of 1988. He would always lend a hand anytime someone needed help! I had a flat tire on the highway nearby one nignt when my husband was gone, & he came and changed it faster then an employee of AAA!
