I am sorry to hear of Steve's passing. I met Steve around the time my friends Maria and Dennis were getting married. He was their Best Man, and I was their Maid of Honor. Steve was such a good friend to Dennis and Maria (and their children), their friend Marco and many others. Steve was very handsome on the outside, but what was most attractive about him were the inner qualities he possessed: he was such a good, caring and loyal friend; he was so kind and generous with those he loved; and he possessed a quiet strength. He will be sorely missed by many of us. My deepest condolences to his family and close friends. May God comfort you in this difficult time.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

I was so blessed to have had you as my Uncle. As a little girl I was awed by how handsome and gentle and kind you were. Throughout the years, as time went by and we grew older, you were not only my great, cool Uncle Steve, but also became a great friend. I will miss you selfishly but know that Heaven's doors have welcomed you in. Love you forever, Doreen

We are so sorry to hear about Steve's battle with cancer. Steve is probably one of the cousin's that I have know the longest, because of Cathy's early relationship with Steve. I don't know why Cathy had the chance to spend a summer with my mom and dad, while her parents spent the summer on Kelly's Island, Steve would stop over and see her on a daliy basics in an old plymouth and I being the brat I was would brother the heck out of them. Again our prayers and thoughts are with the family. Love the Peroni Family
