I worked with Steve at the plant in Gustine. He was an original good old boy! Guess God needed something fixed,so he called Steve!

Steve was literally a second dad for me. I spent many hours at the Brown family home. It breaks my heart to know he is no longer with us. He will surely be missed.

Our sincere condolences go out to you Bev, Melisa and Jason. All the Grandkids will certainly miss their Grandpa Steve as we all will. Untimely deaths are always especially hard.
Looking back on the good times and the many laughs we have had together brings back wonderful memories. Steve will be missed but he is still in our hearts.

Remembering the good times when Steve hung out with my brother. They spent hours tinkering with radios and fiddling with old surplus Navy radio equipment, and had a great time trying to communicate with ham operators from around the world. My high school years and beyond are punctuated with these memories.
So sorry to hear of Steve’s passing. He was a unique person and will be missed by all of us. Take care.
