He was from Williamsville, Illinois & graduated from Williamsville High School. He considered Arizona and Ohio home.

He was a quiet leader with a constant sense of humor. He was a dignified man who commanded respect by the way he lived his life. He proudly served his country in the U.S. Air Force with strength and honor. Steve's loyalty and dedication remained with him and showed in the way he cared for his family. He will be remembered for his integrity and the love he had for those around him.
