He loved to camp, travel and spend time at their cottage at Hillside Beach. Steve was a gentle, and kind husband and father, and he will be greatly missed. The family would like to thank the following people, Ed and Sylvia Goska for all their help given during his illness, it was greatly appreciated, to Father Bozyk for the early morning mass given the following morning, on such short notice, to Dr. Komenda and the staff on 3E of the Concordia Hospital for their care and compassion. A heart of gold stopped beating, hard working hands went to rest, God took you home to prove to us, He only takes the best. Heartaches in this world are many, but losing you was worse than any. It will be lonely here without you, we will miss you more each day, for life will not be the same for us, since youve been called away. We will always remember the way you looked, the way you walked and smiled, all the things you did for us, will be with us all the while. You always did your best, your heart was true and tender, you lived your life for those you loved, and those you loved will remember.
