Sending my thoughts and prayers to Jennifer, Bob Kimberly, Patrick and Steve’s entire family on this day as he has been laid to rest.
Steve was a good, kind and generous man. He loved his family beyond words.
He will be missed by not only his family, but by the many friends whom were fortunate to have known him.
Rest In Peace Steve.

I believe Steve joined Indianapolis Water Co. in 1971. When I began at IWC in 1974, Steve and I worked together in multiple projects. One summer we spent many days locating water mains and compiling fire hydrant information in Cumberland, IN. This utility had been purchased by IWC and maps were required. Steve was always patient, thorough and just fun to be around. From the 1970s to the 1990s Steve inspected contractors' work as new water utility facilities were added to the rapidly growing IWC system. Thank you, Steve, for your career helping to provide water service to the Indianapolis metro area.

Our deepest sympathy to Jennifer and Kimberly and families in your great loss. Your father always spoke so lovingly about his daughters and was so proud of his grandson!
We were neighbors to Steve at heritage Palms GCC.
We have many fond memories of Steve . We shared many dinners and BBQs with him as well as boating, fishing , and golfing dates!
He shared his computer and photography talents with us a zillion times. Whenever we were in a bind with the computer or needed an event photographer he was always there. He was a great guy and a true gentle man!
Steve was so helpful in working on a veterans club at Heritage Palms. He was there to help out with doing whatever he could for the veterans of the community, a cause that was very dear to him.
He was also a photographer and graphic designer for the United Irish of Southwest Florida. He did this out of friendship . That was so typical of Steve . He would help out friends anytime he could. His loyalty to helping others was such a wonderful quality!
Although we lost contact with Steve after he moved out of HPGCC we will never lose our memories of him! Our memories will keep him alive in our hearts.
Our deepest sympathy also to John snd Cindy Wolf, his longtime and cherished friends. They will feel his absence and miss his presence in their lives . 🙏
You all will be in our thoughts, and prayers .
God Bless 🙏❤️

Jackie and I always looked forward spending time with Steve. He always had a smile on his face and was fun to be with. I appreciated his patience while we were playing golf. I believe he said “ the one good thing about playing golf with Tom is you can be sure you will be on the golf course longer”. Steve, Thanks for the memories and your service to our country! May God be with you!
Steve was a very good friend for over 40 years. Besides working together for 20 years, we socialized and played many rounds of golf. One day we were playing a round of golf and I was playing so bad that Steve gave me his left handed putter to use. I didn't play much better but I continue to utilize his putter still today. I the future, ever time I play a round of golf I will remember Steve. Goodbye my friend and God Bless.

Although Stephen was my ex wife's Uncle, he was more like a brother because of the closeness in age. Since his kids and our kids were also close in age, we did a lot of things together. My condolences go out to Jennifer and Kimberly and the rest of the family. Stephen was a good man and will be missed.
Steve will be missed by us immensely. He was definitely a constant in our lives. After retirement, John spent winters in Florida with Steve and Steve spent summers in Indy with Cindy and John.
We moved to Florida in 2012 and Sunday afternoons were a given that Steve came to our house for dinner. We spent many hours watching final rounds of PGA golf tournaments, NASCAR and INDY car races along with Colts games. Most of the time we had two TV’s going at the same time. Sunday afternoons will sure be different.
Steve, may God bless you and welcome you home. You will be missed by all who got to know you. Hit ‘em long, buddy!

Steve was part of our family. Whether we came to Florida or he came to Indiana we were always glad to see each other. We tried to go to as many places as possible during our visits. Whether we went out or just stayed in playing cards (Play Nine was his favorite), we always had fun. He will be forever missed. Prayers to his girls, grandson, and extended family and all his friends that loved him so much.
