Some of the many people that came to Steve's SEMA party so that he could raise money for his charities...Steve was always donating money to things that meant a lot to him...



Raffling off all of the donated gifts...




And Ken Tibor with Steve's good buddy Hawaiian Jeff!

Very sad news about Steve. We got to know him pretty well with the Mose's deuce project, and the early start of the Roof deuce. He was a great guy to work on a project with. Always excited about what was going on. Always a good conversation even when we talked politics.
He was pretty proud of the fact that he could shoot toe, to toe with the army sniper boys too.
And he adored those beautiful grandkids of his. I remember when the 1st was born I got a slew of baby pics.
Our hearts go out to Beth, and the entire family. We've lost a fine man, and a good friend.

Yeah that's me Bruce. I remember that day clearly. I was just standing there and in Cumby fashion, Steve snuck up behind me and slugged me in the arm to let me know he was there.

A truly rotten evening upon hearing this news. Steve did plenty for my family as well and for that I am forever grateful.

Some might remember that he even donated a 69 Camaro to my nephew's school in Oswego. That post is somewhere here.

He was a good friend who will be missed. His kindness and generosity was 2nd to none.

Rest in peace my friend. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img]

Some of you might not know but if it wasn't for Steve we probably wouldn't be posting on this site. Clarys were ready to pull the plug on it years ago and Steve stepped in,rallied a team, changes were made and the site stayed up. He did more for others than anyone I know. I miss you buddy. May you rest in peace.

I agree Chas. Just when you see alight at the end of the tunnel you hear stuff like this. Not good man. He was a gentle giant. Helped everyone he could. Dammit.

Don't mess with old farts - age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.

I recall the day that Steve called me as he was getting on a plane in Philadelphia (I never met him before), and the next thing I knew he was on my door step! He was such a genuine humble guy - a real car guy. He even talked me out of one of my cars. I'm sure that we'll see him again in heaven!
