I met Steve when I was invited to his yearly Ryder Cup at Geneva National. The man was larger than life and I played golf with him many times and I am so sad to hear he passed away back in March. Steve will be sorely missed by many and he was a good man and friend. Rest in peace Steve.
I grew up in the neighborhood with Steve in Des Plaines, have many great memories of Steve. We worked on cars, played baseball in the street, lighted fireworks all day long on the fourth of july ,drove to florida in a 2 door car for spring break. He taught me kick boxing. He is playing a round of golf with God now, I was saddened to hear Steve passed away, he will always be in my memories. Scott Miller 8477510050
